http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_empires IShopAtPublix, now you are being unreasonable - you should have a look into Confucianism. Also, the Mongol empire was not "divine" - it was all practical conquest. Finally, remember where civilization started... with agriculture...

sho-tim, I knew that birds are evolved from dinosaurs and share a latent part of DNA with them, just like we humans share a large part of DNA with the monkeys. Is your whole "fact checking mission" about proving that we have evolved from earlier primates? :)

Anderson Silva was a black belt WTF Taekwondo practitioner first; he started at age 14. What does style have to say? Nothing - it's all in your head. If you go to a real life fight and then "stay within the rules" of a competition style - then you are just nuts. What facts do we know...

Understand the inherent risks of Google: Internet searching is nowhere near perfection as of yet, and it only takes on itsy bitsy competing solution that is better than Google to bring the whole shit down. It will most probably come from some other garage firm. The evolutionary problem...

Much more interesting is doing the comparison of the current US and national socialism. Also about the "persona" role of Bush and that of Hitler. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persona http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationalsocialism See authoritarian rule, social control, symbolism...

What point does it make if a style is 5 years old or 2500 years old? Recently resurrected or not. In the end - if you stick to your line of thinking: nothing beats pancration, absolutely nothing. My whole point is that it IS about the fighters - like Bruce Lee, Sebastiaan Rutten, Anderson...

IShopAtPublix, all good and valid points. :)

Here comes a_person all "commando style" again... Spewing his constant personal attacks and calling everyone anti-Semitic if they dare say anything against Israel or even dare mention the word Jewish. a_person is the most pathetic user on EliteTrader - even worse than that guy from Australia...

Are you denying that Albert Einstein was a Zionist and had a political agenda? Did I attack Einstein's intellect anywhere? And as long as we are using logics and reasoning here - you answered my post after all - please show me any post or evidence where I come off as a Palestinian...

So, your point is that it is up to each and everyone to have faith or not, and it is voluntarily? :)

bjjtrader, you are ignoring my point. I am saying that it is stupid to compare styles, and of course some will dominate others. Lets say you would do pancration against any other style - then pancration would win all matches - because they have the widest set of techniques where anything...

Yes, I saw that program. I see all the GPS programs, and it's one of my favourite shows. The quality of the interviews and roundtable discussion are just off the chart in comparison to the other shit on CNN. It's quite important to understand the position of other leaders and nations to...

stock777, you had to feel pretty special yesterday... Twilight Zone or something... :)

The first part is just ridiculous - of course not, wrestling has not more or better throws than Judo or Sambo. Judo clinch is not good - agreed. On the other hand, wrestling clinch is also not very good - depending on the objective. When it comes to inflicting damage or winning a fight...

US lawyers will also be making kaboodles of money for decades as well, because of the corruption they helped put in place.

Fractals, people get "comfortable" in their own skins and stop evolving. It is called growing old - and your brain has no where to grow, and is all invested in old structures and beliefs... "can't teach an old dog new tricks". It is simply nature and evolution going it's course. :)

The above is simply an outright LIE. You claim faith - and that is detached from logic and reason. Try affronting me on logic and reasoning... :)

Mobocracy is not direct democracy. A direct democracy works by protecting the rights of each individual voter, not the corruption of the system by any group. I have explained in numerous posts here on ET, how direct democracy and Laissez-faire works as long as we implement strong integrity...

Sounds like communism... :)
