This is tough. I don't want to snipe or be mean. Your argument cries out for a response. There's no way to respond honestly without saying "I disagree strongly, and here's why." So with respect here are the major points of disagreement and the reasons for them:
This is a lot to reply to. I have attempted to simply state a position. This is the way I teach. Everyone, has an opinion. We disagree.
I am on this board to discuss. I don't expect you to "change your mind about your beliefs. I except your criticisms. But, I stand by my position. Thank you.
I agree with Exile, Tellners post was excellant and easy to understand. Without being rude I have to ask tuturuhan if he actually has enough time to train with the sheer amount of posts he puts on here?
My martial arts are for fighting, my spiritual needs come from my religion and beliefs. I still, as I posted elsewhere about this, feel I'm being partonised by his female mystique stuff. Tellner expressed it better than I did though!
