Sarx (σαρξ) is the Greek word for "flesh".
This is the self-ruled blog of an Christian attempting to follow God in the Way of Jesus... sometimes. I most identify with the Anglican and Liberal Catholic flavours. I am a Confederate American sojourning in Buffalo, NY.

Root Quotes
«Not to have envy, not to be angry, not to hold a grudge against him who offends you, is not for all that to bear the man charity [love]. For it can be that a man, not yet loving, does not return evil for evil, because of the commandment; nevertheless he does not yet do good for evil, spontaneously. Purposely to do good to those who hate you belongs to perfect spiritual love alone.»

Wow … this is really weird. Reads like a bad “Onion Dome” article.
I had no idea that an Orthodox organization took over the SPCK bookshops. Even after Googling it, I’m still not entirely clear what this is all about.
Sad to see, on the SSG website, the tired old mythology/propaganda about Holy England being “Orthodox” before the Battle of Hastings and (poof!) magically “Roman Catholic” after.
Well, I suppose if you repeat something often enough …
As I understand it, there was some financial irregularities in the business end of the bookstores. And they were about to close completely. So the SSG stepped in.
I’m waiting for the “Books that cannot be sold” list.
I’m guessing Vladimir Moss will earn some new retail shelf space from this.
Am I missing it with google? Where is the SSG website?
I got to the SSG website through their OrthodoxWiki article.
