I can define it just fine.  Just not to your satisfaction.  

Nor to anyone elses it would seem.

But that only proves your prejudice and ignorance, not a problem with anyone's
definition.  

Or it proves that you are delusional. Sometimes when you're the only
one who believes something, it means that you're wrong.

You reject any and all definitions because you don't want
to consider that others can do what you cannot.

I reject your definition because it's obviously something you pulled
out of your ass.

No, it's not only the simplest, it the ONLY possible answer. I'm
thinking Occam's Razor would apply here. Ignoring all the flowery
translations from Chinese it's just a westernized way to explain an
observation. Chi is not magical. SOMETHING is there. There is some
explanation for "energy flows". There is some explanation for
markedly increased energy and power levels. SOMETHING makes the body
react the way it does. Clearly that something MUST be biochemical.
That is how we get our energy. The ancient Asian understanding of
energy is described as chi. We now understand the chemistry behind
energy in the human body. Well, maybe you don't.
