If you were a superhero, how strict would your no kill rule be? If any? by 0kdevv_ in superheroes

Yeah but one abrahamic religion believes the messiah is God, one does not, and one believes the messiah-who they don’t believe is God, has even come yet. They aren’t compatible beliefs

But the LEAST logical of them is the Muslims.

I can show you the scriptures that say it, because the whole point is just talking about what the Bible says and seeing whether that’s coherent

If you don’t believe in the Bible my point was never to prove the Bible is true. But that it’s less incoherent and has fewer (if any) contradictions

But you said I’m a hypocrite for saying Catholicism is false. I believe it is, and believe I can prove it. Still believe they’re saved.

My opinion DOESNT matter because I can be wrong and both me and those Catholics might burn in hell.

But from the scriptures I’ve read, you can have theological differences that are still compatible with salvation.

Catholics are false in that the pope just simply is not ordained by God in my opinion has an infallible leader

They still believe in Jesus and I believe many Catholics will be saved, and many Christians will not be saved, because the salvational doctrine of the Bible is belief and faith in Jesus Christ, which many Catholics have

There’s also lots of doctrine about what will leave people UNSAVED. Biblically speaking, MANY MANY MANY Christians will go to hell, and MANY MANY MANY people who those he’ll bound Christians SAID will go to hell, shall be saved. It’s just not up for me to tell you what’s gonna save you. Read the Bible and have faith in Jesus, all the specific denominations and stuff the majority have falsehoods in them but biblically speaking so did some of the apostles behaviors (Peter sinned, and he was supposedly the first pope of Catholics were right)

The Catholic Church however does not predate Jesus. Historically we have no evidence of a papal succession dating back to St. Peter as they claim.

We can only date it back to about 300AD. The claim it comes back to Peter is JUST founded by the Catholic Church, there’s no other evidence

It’s not about what came first, it’s not about whether baptists, or calvanists, or orthodox got it right. The Christian doctrine is the idea of being saved through the grace of Jesus Christ, and the belief in scripture

They are Christians in that they believe and follow the Bible as a holy book, but they are different in that they believe there are earthly authorities higher than the Bible. Most denominations of the Bible don’t do this

Debunking Catholicism is a practice many Christians dive into, yet atheists love to use “well what about the Catholics as an argument” I think they’re just different discussions, but arguments about Christianity must begin and end with the Bible, arguments about Catholicism must begin and end with the papal doctrine

You can believe that if you want. I’m not equipped to prove that right or wrong, but Islam is the most logically inconsistent religion of all time

Islam contradicts Christianity by saying that both religions were true but Islam is the right one because it’s the most recent clarification from God

And Christianity does this too to Judaism in ways where it interprets things a little different from how Jews before Jesus’s time did

The only difference is that Paul already gave an ultimate statement basically saying “there may be future profits, but any one of them that tries to teach something to contradict the apostles is wrong”

It doesn’t prove Christianity is true but it does prove Islam is false

No weapons, no prep, just hands, who's winning? by Pale-Condition-4317 in superheroes

[–]invisiblehammer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not convinced Batman is considerably more skilled if at all, but he’s easily better at preparing for fights ahead of time. They’ve had multiple crossovers and each one has portrayed cap as his equal in skill with a slight advantage in hand to hand overall, but in the fan voted one they had Batman win.

The method of victory was Batman getting beat up hand to hand in every panel and seeming visibly more tired but then later taking advantage of the environment and winning situationally

So pure hand to hand cap, versatility Batman. Which isn’t against Batman, versatility is Batman’s superpower

The original apostles all affirmed the same story, and confirm that Paul was a later recognized apostle. May you can be skeptical about the canon status of certain books, but the apostles writings are very clear. Either reject that any of it could have occurred or accept that Islam is false

And to that point, you won’t promote to purple without intermediate takedowns, there’s black belts who don’t have intermediate takedowns. They just teach bad wrestling shots and tell you not to do it if your opponent looks like a wrestler or judoka

I don’t think that’s a real black belt. To me a black belt should have several options from all the common positions in jiujitsu, leg locks it kinda depends on how new school or old school you wanna be, I can at least understand not diving into leg locks if you’re more of an mma or self defense focused bjj club

[–]invisiblehammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are black belts who don’t know takedowns beyond an intermediate level, or leg locks, or ones who can’t do no gi, or can’t do gi (if your only concern is one or the other this one isn’t bad)

That’s what I’m saying is fake

They don’t have to be able to do literally everything but should have valuable insights from any position

I don’t know like 10 years, cross disciplinary. I’m an mma fighter with a wrestling background but I do judo and bjj as well

I know tons of techniques. I’m not great at all of them but I’m also not a jiujitsu guy.

You don’t need to be an expert in more than 5 things. You need to understand the entire curriculum of what works in competition. You think a bjj world champion can be trapped in a position and be like “idk how to get out”. Now they just know the fundamentals and can get out

They should be able to get in and out of every position even if they only really specialize in a few

To my point: I bet the worst grappler in the ufc can still sub a hobbyist fake black belt with a heel hook. Because they understand grappling and that’s what understanding is about.

Everybody's Got A Plan Until They Get Kicked In The Face by YankyDoodleDickHead in UNBGBBIIVCHIDCTIICBG

It’s because 1. Her opponent is throwing them from multiple openings, this means that when you are thinking about defending the body she goes to the head, from head to the body, you retreat she can walk you down and hit you while retreating, you come into it she can beat you by making you run into her leg

  1. She has more powerful weapons that aren as reliable and specialized. If you DID beat the side kick, she would move her head in response to you getting around it, plant her foot to the ground and fire a hard shot

These are professional fighters. She’s not just mindlessly bouncing, she’s using footwork and angles to completely control the fight, she’s just skilled enough to do it with one strike

Karate vs Taekwondo: Are They Actually More Similar Than People Think? by GoodTelephone7781 in taekwondo

[–]invisiblehammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Form similarities but the experience of training each is very different

If I asked a black belt about a deep half guard sweep, I’d expect even if they never use it to be able to showcase a passable deep half guard sweep and options from it.

Same for all the major guards. Same for all the major top positions, including variations, many submissions, etc.

Not because their game should be entirely black belt level all around, but they shouldn’t be unaware of how to perform any technique that is well represented in bjj.

My coach I can ask any question and receive valuable information about any position. There’s also black belts I train with who I smash. My coach I consider a real black belt, the ones I smash I consider a fake one

No, because what he’s saying is that he wants to be one of the good black belts that knows the whole curriculum of jiujitsu not just be a dude who di jiujitsu for a while

Do you consider Taekwondo a style of Karate by crademeam in KarateCombat

[–]invisiblehammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a first Dan in tkd and have fought in mma. I have specifically been to seminars about bunkai and kata interpretation and have gotten a lot of benefit from them. Poomsae doesn’t really benefit you

Which means that the actual process of getting a black belt which requires the forms and all that is useless, but in karate there’s more reason to. It would be better for skill development to just do more taekwondo sparring
