RAT

The following typical threads that plague martial arts sites will get moved here if not just deleted: 1 - My style is better than Your style" - 2 - "Internal & External" - 3 - Personal attacks - 4 - Threads that start well, but degenerate into a spiral of nonsense.

If atheists do not believe in anything, why are they so vociferous?

Why do they talk so much?

The best sermon would be silence.
I define internal martial art as unusual muscle recruitment and leave it at that. If my definition is incomplete, at least it is correct so far as it goes.

They believe that there is no god(s), so that's faith too :)

Then atheists would have nothing to say!

Why do so many argue that the problem would be solved if the "other guy" just shut up?

You can't have a negative mind and a positive life at the same time.

A gay guy tried to hit on a straight guy, and the straight guy said he now understood #metoo.

A friend of mine recently came out as bisexual and the response he's gotten on various apps have really made him feel different about #metoo. He did acknowledge that it was a much different experience for him coming to this sort of behavior through appropriate channels as an adult in his mid-30s somewhat mentally prepared for it and that many women experience similar treatment from childhood onward is a very different experience.

If I can explain it in English, that's not what it means in Chinese.

Mozart's music was best when his motives were bad. "Meine tochter nicht mere" is better music than "Tuba miram spargens sonum" Perhaps he preferred the minor key.

I just found out that the inhabitants of Venus should be called Venereals.
