Martial Arts are Witchcraft, just ask this guy!

WE ARE ALL INFIDELS!



Does anyone else find this insanely offensive?

Alrighty then… here we go

The Martial Arts are more than just a method of self-defense or a system of health exercises. They actually involve a life philosophy derived from eastern religions. The testimonies of Karatekas a devout practitioner of karate or other forms of martial arts do not hide the fact that the martial arts are more than just a sport."Karatedo another form of karate is an art and I teach it as a way of being, a way of life, as a method of developing one's self, and not as a sport," states one teacher. Karate is not a fighting sport. This was completely misconstrued by people of this country where it was taken and turned into a sport.

Actually I think the sport thing started before this country, see Sumo, Shuaijiao, Judo, etc.

There are many conflicting theories regarding the origin of the martial arts. The account stated here is a widely accepted survey that traces the general history of the martial arts and goes back too the dawn of civilization in India. Three millennia ago in China, the arts were developed even more extensively. By the establishment of the Feudal States in 770 B.C., Kung fu was widely practiced.

Not exactly and widely accepted by who?

In 1928 they were renamed War Arts and were awarded national recognition. Over the centuries various aspects of the arts were modified and eventually evolved into more or less violent types.

Yes and no…in China, mostly no until Modern Wushu showed up and even then Sanda was born so…

Northern and Southern schools and hard and soft forms also developed. Kung fu was the original all inclusive term describing the martial arts.

No, Kung Fu means hard work it does not mean martial arts. Wushu means martial arts and North and south are a result of geographical locatoin and dynastic change

Later, specific names were applied to its variations: karate, tai chi, judo, jujitso, and aikido.
In Korea, the arts were known as Te Kwon Do. They were honed into their highest forms of proficiency in Okinawa.

Again no. Karate is Japanese, Tai Chi (Taiji) is Chinese, Judo is Japanese and fairly new, Jujutsu is Japanese and Aikido is Japanese and again fairly new. Teakwondo is Korean and most of tehm are not honed into thier highest proficincy in Okinawa

Though one often thinks of the arts as made in Japan, they have many roots and cultural variations. The original religious philosophy of Kung fu dates back as far as 2696 B.C., where it was rooted in the Occult forms of divination known as the I-Ching and the book of Changes.

Nope, but the year may be right, i get 2697BCE but what is 1 year when you are talking 4700 years, if you are looking for the oldest “Kung Fu” you need to look at Shuiajiao and its roots are in hurting people, not the occult and not the I Ching. It could be possible that a guy doing jiao di". However if Lao Tzu even existed the oldest records place him between 600 and 400 BCE so the book attributed to Lao Tzu was likely not around in 2696BC. Also the oldest I-Ching found is from the 4th century BCE. There are things thought to be the precursor to the I-Ching but they were not called the I-Ching

Lao-Tse, the Chinese sage born in 604 B.C., added further embellishments. His teachings were set forth in a 5,280 word manuscript called Tao Te Chang, also known as " the Tao" or "the Way".

The year of lao tzu's birth could be right (if he existed at all) since historians tend to feel he would have existed between 600 and 400BCE. But no, he either wrote it or his name was applied to a bunch of other text when they were slapped together to gain legitamcy (but then I think Loa tzu means old teacher). If he existed, there is no one out there (talking Chinese historians) saying he empleshed it. They thing Confucious may have though

He taught salvation could not be found in prayer but rather by the observance of nature, the natural way.

No mention of “Salvation” by the Christian definion in the I-Ching

As the trees bend with the wind, and rivers follow the path of least resistance, so must man adapt to the rhythm with evil and wrong.

Nope, nothing about accepting evil and wrong

The next development in history of Kung fu took place when a monk named Bodhidharma brought Buddhism to China in sixth century A.D. When he discovered the monks sleeping during his lectures, he introduced exercises to assist them in meditation. Known as I-Ching Sutura, his system combined Kung fu with the philosophical principle of Zen to develop a highly sophisticated form of weaponless fighting.

Nope, likely Bodhidharma never existed, Zen did not exist at that time either and there is no I-Ching Sutra, that is just plain made up by the author as far as I can tell.

The monks at his Shaolin temple became famous for their savage abilities of defense which they employed whenever they were attacked in the course of pilgrimages. Eventually two schools of martial arts evolved; Ch'uan Fe (Kung fu) based on the hard (external) school of Buddhism, and other arts founded on the soft (internal) school of Taoism.

I don’t think so. Taoism is indigenous to China, Buddhism isn’t and there was no internal, external talked about until much MUCH later; 1600s AD

Martial arts have evolved into six basic forms by which they are known. In the Western world they are known as: Kung Fu, Tai Chi Ch'uan, Karate, Akido, Judo and Jujitsu.

Nope, first Taiji is “Kung Fu” second forms are part of styles they are not style but lets give him the benefit of the doubt here and just say he meant styles…he is still wrong. there are a hell of a lot more styles of martial arts out there other than the 6 he listed in japan alone.

Such Occult experimentation is forbidden in Leviticus 19:31. Karate works by inducing a passivity in the mind setting the stage for a type of self-hypnosis. A demon then enters and gives supernatural strength and power. Karate teachers call this "going into perfection." Kung Fu which is rooted in Zen Buddhism, was popularized by a TV series of that name. Bruce Lee movies (Enter the Dragon; Way of the Dragon; Return of the Dragon; Game of Death) also spread this occult science across the nation.

Nope, first some “Kung Fu” styles are associated with Taoism. And none of this give anyone “Supernatural powers” that is just a load of Scatology. Although some during the boxer rebellion thought they had supernatural powers...they found they didn't

Spirits of Murder, Hatred, Pride, Bitterness, Depression, Resentment, Fear, Violence, Lust for Power, Lust for (green, brown or black) Belts, Sexual Lust, Fighting, Rage, Destruction, Suicide, Sadism and Masochism are some of the spirits commonly found in those who have trained in Martial Arts. Some of the more heavily possessed individuals have also become very adept at Mind control, Telepathy, Telekinetic, Mind reading, Astral projection and Soul travel under the leadership of demonic guides.

And that last bit is so incredibly silly, But…there is no belt system in traditional Chinese martial arts so no lust for belts in China, there was lots of “Murder, Hatred, Pride, Bitterness, Depression, Resentment, Fear, Violence, Lust for Power, Sexual Lust, Fighting, Rage, Destruction, Suicide, Sadism and Masochism” but that is pretty much the history of the world. Martial arts not actually the cause of that. Look at ancient Greece, Rome, Europe, etc. Hey look at the Crusades if that was full of “Murder, Hatred, Pride, Bitterness, Depression, Resentment, Fear, Violence, Lust for Power, Sexual Lust, Fighting, Rage, Destruction, Suicide, Sadism and Masochism” And China, Japan and marital arts had nothing to do with that

Martial Artists are like magicians, anyone who spends that much time paying attention to the detail of their own motion ends up being kind of a weird person. Like a Marine, your body begins to take on a command of its very own, and or, you become graceful as a ballerina, and it just seems off to a normal person. If that ain't magic, I don't know what is. Your very gate can change the behavior of those around you! You my friends are witches!

Like flips and throws, now hees here... Now he is on the floor or once I went to a pressure point seminar it was pretty cool, the guy took a volunteer and had him by twice fingers and made move all around and made him walk around like a chicken, if that's not magic i don't know what is :hmm:

And mind control! "If you cluck like a chicken, the pain will stop"... and sure enough, he clucks.

 

[RTKDCMB]

and i suppose that when you perform a flying kick or a flying knee people expect you to be drinking red bull and growing wings too

all very magical to those that don't know how to dance the dance

and then there's the "tango" in the muay thai ring where your feet are constantly moving in squares never more than shoulder width apart now that's spooky

and when you get to the checkout in the grocery store and you stand front on but with your leading leg pointing straight at the checkout person and your right foot is shoulder width apart - knee slightly bent and you're up on the ball of your foot ready to strike must look completely nuts too

all very much witchcraft and wizardry -- that comes as part of martial arts muscle memory

I can magically make one piece of wood turn int two and I can make my enemies disappear.

 

[RTKDCMB]

No, Kung Fu means hard work it does not mean martial arts.

I thought that Kung Fu means the attainment of skill through learning and practice,a chef who makes a fine meal has shown good Kung Fu for example.

 

[donnaTKD]

was going to say how so ? but then again he's using weapons and he obviously mastered those weapons to achieve the end result happy dayz

could say also that everytime i fix someones battered car and get it to work properly then i've shown good kung fu -- if what you're saying is right ?

not used muay thai on a car yet - think it's a bit too violent for a tepremental tin box

hard work...is the translation....attainment of skill through learning and practice is hard work

 

[RTKDCMB]

I wonder, does martial arts practice/witchcraft cause earthquakes the same way women behaving promiscously does?

Women to blame for earthquakes, says Iran cleric | World news | theguardian.com

Some earthquakes are caused by shear forces, the next one might be caused by the shear ignorance of some people.

Did you hear about the martial artist who accidently walk into a gay bar? He disappeared with a poof.

 

[donnaTKD]

^^^ now that's what i call real magic ^^^

 

[Touch Of Death]

^^^ now that's what i call real magic ^^^

As Freddie Mercury would say, "It's that kind of magic"

 

[donnaTKD]

making things disappear is magic no one really wants to know where they've just disappeared to though

it's a bit like the vanishing bruise use enough makeup and anything can be hidden

just like real witchcraft it's all in the portrayal of the illusion seeing someone like me in full flow - now there's a blink and you'll miss it real life optical illusion

 

[Touch Of Death]

The true magic to martial arts is not to create fear, for fear is the you killer. The magic is in becoming invisible, and by that I mean, that when a bully sees you, he does not see you as a target.

In the link provided by the OP, it talks about lusting for belts, lusting for green belt, brown belt, black belt, ect. That is ridiculous. There is nothing wrong with wanting to achieve something. That same lust for belts can be applied to just about anything else. In school it could be said that some students lust for good grades such as As, in Boyscouts it can be said that some scouts lust for boyscout badges and boyscout rank, so it can be applied to anything. Whoever wrote the link clearly doesn't know what they're talking about and needs to get their head screwed on right.

 

[donald1]

Or mind tricks when i tell students to practice kata or bunkai... What is this sorcery?! I told the students to stand in front of the class and practice there forms and guess what... They did it. This has got to be witch craft...
And when I get paid, every time i get my wallet the pay disappears i wanna ask this guy if this is witch crafts too... Or is it evil demons...

 

[donnaTKD]

i'd also like to know why my bank balance is reading near zero at the end of every month considering what i earn and what i haveto fork out to go to fights --- maybe it's the devil saying "yeah well if you didn't go then you'd have more cash and be the size of a house so we'd meet each other eventually "

i'd also like to know why my sparring partner has gone soft on me - maybe it's cos i got the devil in my gloves :viking3: really wouldn't mind knowing what the fear is

 

[donnaTKD]

there was definitely magic or some sort of devine intervention in the ring yesterday i was getting my butt kicked properly then all of a sudden i just started swinging and putting combinations together in a sort of "if i'm going down - i'm going down scrapping" way and i won

really don't know where i got it from or where it came from either but hell i'll take the result LoL

still can't understand what if anything was looking after me

 

[Balrog]

It IS sad how it always seems to be Christians. I can't think of an example where a Muslim pulled their child out of a martial arts school for religious reasons.

Agreed. It's always the fundies who seem to ask the questions about heathen religious practices in the schools, etc.

In my school currently, I have four families that I know are Muslim, one that I know is Hindu, at least four Catholics and one solid agnostic. Several others that I don't know about, but I'll assume they are probably some form of Christianity until I learn otherwise. But it doesn't matter. Once we step on the floor, we are all worshiping in The Church Of The Jumping Sidekick. :boing1: Even my cat does.

 

[donnaTKD]

^^^ LoL at your cat ^^^

thinking that maybe it's been watching you train too many times i know that my dog throws punches with his front paws when he scraps

they say that animals are like their owners - if that be so then it's no wonder that we've pets practicing the darker side of martial arts witchcraft and wizardry

 

[Cirdan]

Well that cat is clearly posessed by a demon if you ask me!

(please PM me the ritual for conjuring demon spirits in small animal hosts, my master never thaught me that one)
