So... half the dojo I practice in is obviously evil or
violence-loving... because at least half of us are Christians. That's
the problem with religion as a whole... it's too black and white.
Aikido, for example, is another martial art... yet is not aggressive
or violent. It focusses just as much on protecting one's attacker as
the person defending themselves... and again, I bring you back from
the crusades. If god hated violence, and all us Christians were
taught to go against that, crusades would never have happened.

Clement, about the martial arts.
Well, its quite simple.
We are taught at our meetings that martial arts is wrong in God's eyes.
Its as simple as that.
I am not part of the people who prepares the meetings, so I cannot tell you
why we are taught martial arts is wrong.
In our meetings there is no psychology, no complicated stuff.
Martial arts is violence and we are taught, everything connected to
violence is wrong because god hates violence; as simple as that.
