Bullet Dodging Kata

Time for a lesson... ...
... most Qi phenomena are matters of bio-mechanics and psychology employed to derive a result. In the case of the most magical Qi phenomena (distance KO's) it was all psychology thus the previously posited statement that these tricks are used by hucksters to rope in rubes to their stupid seminars.

Like I posted earlier, kombat Ki is pure BS, the Discovery Channel did a documentary on it years ago. The guys that said they couldn't be choked out and a knife would only get dull if you tried to cut them? Yeah. They all got choked out and then declined to try the knife thing...


Almost as funny as that Systema stuff if folks didn't actually buy into that whodoo...

Then Why Do People Bow To Mats And Pictures Of Dead People Etc... If They Aren't "worshiping" Spirits? Just Showing Respect? To What?

How about my Sifu's father. I show his image respect as a sign of respect for my Sifu.

[SimonM]

You can.

1. Take a room full of physics grad students
2. Pass out free shots of Jeagermeister
3. Get a Britney Spears look alike in a cheerleader outfit to come out to discuss "Coefficients of Friction on Oscillating Bodies"

Spirits raised.

I don't think that is spirits being raised. Other things perhaps... Why Jagermeister though? Get 'em drunk, give 'em Scotch!

I don't profess to be an expert but I had heard that Systema was basically just Russian RBSD with some knife fighting thrown in.

They claim that?

Ok now my last little shred of respect for IKF as a legitimate source of information went out the window. Gah!

Here's MORE!

There is no history for "SYSTEMA" before the DC Comic hero Batman defeated the KGBeast who used something called "the system".

Most modern martial arts are based on marvel comics. Havent you ever heard of Sifu Stan Lee. I think he is bruce Lee's fairy God father.

For the same reason that people keep the military flags and medals of fallen military men in America....to thank them for their sacrifice. Without their sacrifice we would not be where we are today.

Laughing my fuckin' ass off. "Declined". Oh yeah.
Fucking idiots. I'd like to see what the jokers that claim this shit as reality look like.

THAT WOULD BE FOR THE DEMOCRATIC IDEAL. NOT SOME SHINTO SPIRIT WORSHIP CRAP.

I FIND IT HARD TO BELEIVE THAT YOU DON'T KNOW THE DIFFERANCE.

YOUR MIND HAS BECOME DANGEROUSLY CLOUDED.

YOU HAVE BOUGHT INTO THE SUBSERVIANCE AND UNCRITICAL ADHERANCE TO INAPPROPRIATE RELIGOUS CUSTOMS. YOUR UNQUESTIONING OBEDIENCE WILL RESULT IN OLD FASHIONED AND POSSIBLY DANGEROUS TRAINING METHODS.
