I did, and still stand by what I said.
A few chromosomes and female companionship.
Says the guy who looks like Rocky Dennis' stunt double.
Of course, when people become their own "gods", something that is in my opinion pretty much the norm, we get to make up our own morals and rules for everything. HighlandHomie, for example, is not all that bashful about saying adults putting kids into a fight ring are committing "criminal child abuse". Might be some judges who would say as much. even without a specific legislative definition to rule on.
Same guys want government to use force on every issue to secure compliance with their laws, actually, even though they might not be all that ready to understand themselves in that light.
In watching the trailer, what I saw was training for self-defense in some aspects, and at least one kind of sport that society has traditionally accepted. People who don't like this seem to be on the same page with the folks who object to kids playing dodge ball, philosophically speaking. It's the mindset that "the government", through an infinity of supposedly "good laws" and an absolutely adequate police force with sufficient arms, should make sure nothing goes down in this world that isn't not "approved" by the truly enlightened elite intellects among us.
I picked out the comment from one of the fighting pastors that much of Christianity has feminized men to the extent it is a definite problem.
Men need to be competent to defend themselves, their families, and their liberties against any threat, including "do-gooder" liberals who are just out of touch with reality and living some kind of tyrannical fantasy of their own, and who do in fact employ, at other peoples' expense, force to do so.

I don't mind the idea of reaching new demographics through MMA. Kind of cool, actually. I do question suggesting to a teenager that God is going to protect you if you have enough faith, in an MMA fight.
A couple years ago I went to a sports-bar with my Jewish friend and watch Jon Jones destroy Ryan Bader. Jones commented that (paraphrasing) "Jesus helped me with this fight." My friend responded, sarcastically "I guess Jesus did give him that 85" reach".

Why? Some believers would say that if you pray hard enough he will protect you AND help you win.

Guess those mormons don't pray very hard, the Jazz don't have a banner yet.

Everyone has a line where they believe God will no longer intervene.
-If I have enough faith, I will win the lottery.
-If I have enough faith, I won't get caught committing this crime.
-If I have enough faith, McDonalds will bring back the McRib sandwich.
I think most people have a line where they believe God is less likely to intervene. I draw the line well before victory and protection of a minor in a dangerous sport.
****. So goood.
