One question: were ANY of the Jameses ever identified as “son of Mary,” as Jesus was? And what has that to do with anything? The Gospels and epistles were written about Jesus, not James.

What that "has to do with" is that you are claiming precisely that James was the son of Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ.
The problem is that the Gospels are silent on that point..
Surely they would have identified James the same way they identified Jesus --- as "Mary's son"--- if this were so, considering the distinction of being Jesus' actual biological brother.
