[QUOTE="barsoomcore, post: 693979, member: 812"] [b]Re: Re: Re: *snicker*[/b] And so it may be. You haven't presented any evidence to suggest this is actually true, but it may be. And if it is, what is the causal relationship suggested? That martial arts makes people more violent? Or that violent people are more likely to study martial arts? No, you appear to be trying to be rude. Titling posts things like "snicker" is rude, there's no reason to do things like that. If you think that the study of martial arts is dangerous then come right out and say so, and offer some evidence to back it up. I guarantee people will listen. Simply saying, "There are better ways to spend one's time," doesn't offer evidence of much beyond your snide nature. If you just think that it's a waste of time then don't do it. Why go around displaying your prejudices in this fashion? Go off and do things you consider worthwhile. Let us know what they are and maybe we can help you find even better ways to spend your time. It's interesting to me that you have spent so much energy doing nothing but make rude comments, without offering any actual opinions. We know very clearly that you do not consider spiritual pursuits worthwhile, nor do you consider martial arts worthwhile. You say you play RPGs once every three months. Do you consider them worthwhile? What activities do live up to your standards? Apparently making snide remarks about other people's beliefs does. [/QUOTE]
