you can't have kung fu without karate. you can however have karate without kung fu as is done all over the world.
Karate has its roots in Gung-Fu, not vice versa! No "pure" Gung-Fu system EVER "originated" from Karate. Using the Hard vs. Soft style is no basis either as Gung-Fu "originated" both!

Your logic is tainted.
