Fools for Christ

Something that you will come upon if you read enough Eastern Orthodox books are "Fools for Christ." They are called "iurodstvo" in Russian from the word for the crippled or salos (σαλος) from the Greek for deranged. I found an informative website on the subject. It even has good HTML mark-up; a rare occurrence in religious webbery. Go take a looksie.
