Thank you :). That is exactly what I was getting at. I didn't intend for the post to be taken in the way that it was, and looking back over it, it...
Hmmm, I see. If we allow open ended possibilities then we run the risk of slipping completely into fantasy land and living in a state of total...
No. Those things have been proven false. Santa Claus has been proven to be a folk tale, little green men from mars have been disproven by actual...
I actually agree with you. In my above post, I stated that I personally would suspend belief in something until some form of concrete proof is put...
I'm not saying that science is close minded, I'm saying that there are a lot of close minded attitudes out there that would completely deny the...
My apologies. My post wasn't meant as an attack against science itself. I was addressing a certain perception that I have come across quite often...
I understand what you're saying. Personally, I have a really hard time completely denying that something may or may not exist just because modern...

StuckTKD, I understand that it is your opinion and you are entitled to it, but you must understand that it shows a serious lack of understanding...
I dunno, I understand the intention behind the question, but the wording can be taken the wrong way. If a black person chooses to practice...
Hamah, think about the day that you made the realization that Shotokan doesn't contain everything that you are seeking from a martial art. I can...
Blade, I am not trying to make you out to be a bad person. I don't think that you are lazy, and I don't think that you are trying to game the...
That first sentence pretty much summarizes my opinion regarding the issue. I personally believe in safety nets because we all need a helping hand...
No, you've misread me completely. I'm not looking down on the unemployed. I'm questioning the notion of someone turning down a job so that they...
No problem, you're a great person and I have no problem giving credit where credit is due :hat:. Oh, I see. My apologies for the...
You're missing the point that I was making. The gist of what I shared is that if you are truly serious about making things work, then you are...
