Re: 31 Martial Arts Styles

Hello Riikano-Alinaris, how are you? I love Kendo, and although I don't have any formal training, I do know some basic "non-violent" Kendo techniques for disarming an opponent using the unsharpened side of your sword blade, if you are using a live sword. What I know, I learned from respect...

Internet Roleplay & Textual Combat... Dying Subjects

On-line Fighting is becoming a lost art form. Textual Combat, or Internet Chat Fighting (Forum Fighting) was once so popular, it branched out and became something different from its more simple roleplaying counterpart. Textual Combat is not a genre, but a generation which started as Play-By...

Re: Become A Guardian IC (R)

Hunter felt something kicking his black leather boot, and he suddenly lifted his head up consciously. "Huh, wha?" Hunter didn't know exactly where he was at first. He opened his eyes, which were still swollen but not nearly as bad as they were ten minutes ago. The dhampirs body was al...

Re: Become A Guardian IC (R)

John Hunter and Zhou Man-tsu stared at each other with discontent, as they circled around one another inside the fighting cage. Hunter was badly beaten, even walking with a slight limp as he tried to maintain his focus on the fighter who had injured him so badly. But just then, something had occurr...

Re: Does God exist, or does it matter?

I'm just going to refer you all to a similar thread in this forum, which I started before this topic arose. The reason being is because, well, there is diversity here. I've read some people's statements which I agree with, and other people's statements which I don't agree with. But that is neither h...

Re: Does God exist, or does it matter?

The existence of God... Interesting... Heh... Interesting... I don't know what else to say at this point. Does the existence of God matter to me? Heheh, there is an old saying in China, which I think can answer this question for me... Before one can even begin to understand divine principles, one mu...

Re: Become A Guardian IC (R)

Meanwhile... Hunter was getting his ass kicked out on the fighter's mat. He stumbled to regain his balance, as the short little Chinese fella did another spinning back kick, planting his foot flat against Hunter's chest to send him flying back against the cage. The fence rattled as Hunter bo...

Re: From a Christian Perspective.

Agreed... when the Pope sent Rome to conquer the pagan lands during the Crusades, anyone who was not a Christian... No, let me re-phraze that statement... anyone who was not a Roman Catholic, was accused of heresy and thus, suffered the consequences... some were burned at the stake, while others wer...

Re: Book of Unity: Ethicism & Religious Debate

I have done some more research, and here is what I found regarding the Golden Rule as it is said and practiced in all great religions around the world. Observe here the difference in wording, but again, no difference in meaning: LAMAISM: "If you want others to be happy, practice compassion; If...

Re: Book of Unity: Ethicism & Religious Debate

Okay, I'm back. I took the liberty of prescribing the Golden Rule here, as it is important to the kinship of humankind. You will find it in one form or another in the scriptures of every major religion. There are distinctions of phrasing in each quotation, but no difference in meaning. Though d...

Re: Become A Guardian IC (R)

John Hunter finally located his telecommunicator, which had rolled into the next aisle behind his chair. He didn't want to just bend over and pick it up, as that might cause suspicion. But then again, without that device, he wouldn't be able to hear what the other guardians were saying. Tha...

Re: 3 vs. 3 Battle Royale IC

((Sorry I'm late... IRL, you know how it is.)) Gyokko Gaiden stood perfectly still in the middle of the arena, looking over all the opponents. He said nothing to anyone, not even his team mates, as he just turned his back on all of them as the announcer gave the signal for the fight to begin. Gyokk...

Re: From a Christian Perspective.

I take most of the stories in the Old Testament to be both, metaphorical, and literal, at the same time... Was there an Adam and Eve? Actually, despite what some people believe, there probably was... Now, not saying that Adam and Eve were the "first" people on earth, or even that they were...

Re: From a Christian Perspective.

Finally, Gabriel says something which I can agree with him about... I think that baptism is ridiculous, and that communion is even more bazaare... But that's what happens when the Romans get ahold of anything, they completely change it to their liking... I really shouldn't say what I am about to say...
