Bloodsport is the hallowed tale of Frank Dux, the pseudo-son of a ninja god who spread the word of Ninjutsu until he is invited to participate in the Kumite.
A-Ha! But Dux was a thief, not a son of a ninja God. He practiced Ninjitsu, only until he forced his master to "pour into him" every aspect of the martial arts. Including blind folded tea serving, a most valued skill amongst his peers, only second to smashing bricks, and third to rubbing hands with split legs.

JT has a brain, and uses it. He questions things, so fuck off and back off. There is no reason to label him as a cynic for using his noggin.

Fact: Plenty, possibly even the majority, of modern day Jewish people question THE EXODUS. That's a defining moment in history and religion, but Jews ask "Why isn't there any historical or physical evidence of this happening? At all? It's all in a book?"

Merry Christmas.
You may want to look up what pseudo means.

Merry Christmas.

This was the best written, worse Christmas tale of all time. You wrapped up your whole life of cynicism in that one defining moment. If anyone should hate Christmas, it should be you, but you love it anyway. Much the way God loves you even though you refute his existence. :twisted:
I would like to note that cynicism and skepticism have different definitions. I'm a skeptic, not a cynic. And my tale is only sad to those that believe in God and think I should believe in God too, much in the same way that because of my beliefs, I think the lives of many highly religious people are sad. I think it is sad that people don't fully appreciate and partake in the joys of this life (which in my view is the only life we have) and instead piously withhold from pleasure to save all of their indulgent living for the afterlife (which I also don't believe in). What a horrible thing to live a humdrum life and find out there wasn't really a heaven after all (not that you'll ever truly find out since you just stop existing, but it's still sad to me or a person of my beliefs). It's also sad to me when people explain away all of the complexity and mystery of the universe by essentially reducing it all to a "God made it that way" explanation. There is so much in this life to be curious about and explore because we don't really know about it until we see it and try to understand it. I could never continually fall back on a "God made it that way" explanation without feeling utterly bored with life from wearing blinders to the vast swirling complexity of the world around me. When you realize science doesn't have all the answers and is constantly updating itself, it's so much more interesting than magic and the supernatural. I'm happy that I am comfortable with uncertainty, and that I am always questioning. I respect the unknown because there is always more to learn and experience. My tale is not sad at all, from my perspective, as I'm sure yours is not sad to you from your perspective. But, an agnostic would say that, right? Oh well, to each his own. I don't intend to change your mind. I know that agnostic missionary work never goes over very well.
I wasn't knocking your beliefs Doc, I was playing around with you, remember the Darwin joke? I respect your right to believe in whatever you believe in. I really was sad mostly because I don't have that level of recollection of my childhood. But apologies for using cynicism, poor choice of words on my part.

Also, once again Luke, Fuck you, you fucking asshole. You are a dick like 24/7, so eat shit if you don't like what I post. I'm not running around making snide comments about your asshole posts. Those ones that are really funny, but people don't laugh. I only saw your post because it was quoted, that's how much I give a shit about your opinion, feel free to do the same. Quid pro quo.

You are the most Christian of any Christian I have not met, who makes a point to not, not tell everyone they are a Christian. You deserve a no prize.

Great sentence. Really funny, but people don't laugh.

edit* You actually think that I care what you post? How very cute. Sad but cute. If anything you are a toy that loves to be wound up. I only pull the string, and holy shit your strings are the easiest to pull.

Might have to report your hostile language to the mods. Telling one to back off is one thing, but absolute aggression and telling one to "eat shit" is not appropriate for this site.

Nono, that's E³. Subtle difference.
Hobie, I'm sorry but I reported you for putting a tiny scrotum next to your "E". Come on man, you're better than that.
It was purely a clinical comparison of a normal pair compared to ones that are quite angular in shape with severe elephantiasis. Science ≠ pornography.

Report away, if they don't do anything about you acting like a fucking prick constantly, I doubt they will care. Anyhow, like I said "Fuck you". You are an asshole, plain and simple. You aren't funny, clever, witty, or anything else, you're just a dick.

Easily wound up? No, I've just long been fed up with your shit. Like others who PM me but say nothing to you. Here's a thought, if you don't care what I post, don't fucking comment on it.
You are the most Christian of any Christian I have not met, who makes a point to not, not tell everyone they are a Christian. You deserve a no prize.
And you are? Please, you're a joke. That's the only reason people ever laugh. Trust me.
