Christ is Risen!


Be Poets of the Logos!

Sarx (σαρξ) is the Greek word for "flesh". This is the blog of a Southern Man (sojourning in Buffalo, NY) attempting to follow God in the way of Jesus.

NB: I'm currently on a "Blogging Sabbatical" to celebrate my 15th Year of online Journaling. While "Daily Tweets", the occasional review of a book, movie or eatery and Photo Blogging all continue, the daily posts have stopped until January 2011. All comments are currently in moderation.

I who have written this story, or rather this fable, give no credence to the various incidents related in it. For some things in it are the deceptions of demons, other poetic figments; some are probable, others improbable; while still others are intended for the delectation of foolish men.

And from the other POV…

While I do not wish to make light of the Israeli – Palestinian issues. There is a wonderful example of spin here, posted over at Mixed Multitudes:

Let There Be Light

Apparently Hamas has been staging candlelit parliament sessions in Gaza and blaming the lack of power on Israeli blockades and power cuts. But as Gawker points out in this Reuters photo, there is light coming in behind the drawn curtains:

I don’t doubt there are serious issues worthy of news coverage but staging a blackout in broad daylight seems, to me just as dishonest as the infamous “Dancing on 9/11″ video.

    Yep, or the famous “rolling the dice” comment by Bill Clinton. (For the sake of fair disclosure, let me admit that I am an Obama man.)
