Let me know which parts of this elude you and I'll do my best to straighten it out for
you.

the part that eludes me is why you are so desperate to deny something
you cannot grasp so must go to any length to refuse it's existence.

A better question is why you go to such lengths to want to believe something for which there is scant if any evidence.

It's not that I can't grasp it, as though it required some extraordinary intellect to
comprehend - to wit, Richman

it's a complex, abstract concept. You can't touch it or see, smell it
or taste it, however it can be felt.

Oh really? And this 'feeling' is best explained as some 'energy' that despite all best efforts can't be detected?
Isn't that a BIG clue that there is a beter explanation for your 'feeling'? Think about it.

Do
you fear this whole concept so much that you must go on ad nauseum
denying it's existence?
What is it you fear so much?

Fear? Are you serious?

you have a strange, unnatural obsession with denying it. Fear is the
only possible answer.

How about a healthy skepticism?

If you simply
knew it didn't exist and was confident in that knowledge then you
would simply would simply ignore people like Oliver who are only
speaking with conviction about that which they strongly believed in.

It's not always a good idea to ignore people with irrational views.

oh, I don't know, I ignore people like Kirk and Trav all the time. You
ought to try it.

I find Kirk and Trav to be mostly very rational.

You would simply go on your way and not care. But rather you go on
and on for ever, stalking and harassing Oliver,

Poor diddums. He brings it on himself with his dumbass posturing, passive-aggressive
tendancies and outright lies.

I don't think he's lying about anything.

Dude, he lies all the fucking time/

He is speaking with
conviction about something he strongly believes in.

Just because he believes it with everything he has, doesn't make it real.

You ought to try
it sometime.

I avoid believing in things for which there is no evidence.....you ought to try *that* some time.

insisting chi cannot
exist, when clearly all you do is demonstrate that you do not have the
cultural or intellectual capacity to grasp a complex abstract concept.
You , and your idiot friend shuurai, among others, with your childish
demeaning of something you fail to grasp.

Resorting to ad hominem instead of admitting you are self-deluded and/or intellectually
stunted is apparently what earmarks you here, as I don't often engage you in debate.

The concensus view is that you're a fucking idiot, and this could well be the case.

you are the one who arbitrarily deny a huge cornerstone of martial
arts,

Bull***. Chi is NOT a cornerstone of martial arts. It's an antiquated concept believed in by a small minority of martial artists.

I don't know any boxer, wrestler, Judoka or Bjj/MMA practitioner who gives the concept a moment's thought.

yet show some weird obsession in attempting to convince yourself
it cannot be true. It's really weird. You are the obsessed idiot.

Hal, you're a retard.

Like the time you bounced off the big fat dude.

If memory serves me, it was the big fat dude and his pals who believed in their version of chi, and as the blood ceased circulating around their tiny brains, their chi was nowhere to be found.
