Drunken Monkey Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 but don't you think doubting every claim of shaolin kung fu is a bit well, OTT and unfair? it's like saying all pizza is bad cos of the existance of pizza hut. fact is, there is legit shaolin kung fu out there. AND there is the chinese government supported shaolin temple thing. don't discount one because of the other. then of course we can go onto technical details as to what constitutes shaolin. technically, hung gar, mok gar, mantis, pheonix fist and many others are technically shaolin styles. post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."

No, I am not claiming ALL to be bad. It is kinda strange that such a place is continually propagandized, commercialized, and over-"indulged". I guess, if they wanted it to be this way, from its start, they would have built it near a city instead of a remote mountain(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
