Thursday, June 21, 2012 10:56:54 AM "Drating?" Really? I was trying to make a statement and punctuate my point. I wanted to say that MMA was the "F U C K-I N G!" definition of violence. "Drating" really doesn't seem as sharp to me. By the way, good one, immakdjumpme. |

Thursday, June 21, 2012 10:52:11 AM Sure, the violence could be argued as part of the sport. Sure, the sport could be argued as an agreement between two individuals. Sure, it could be argued that kids need to experience bad things from time to time. Sure, a religious minister could be a big MMA supporter and be legit and respected as both. BUT Taking that religion into the arena, and teaching those children that the violence of the sport and the teachings of a religion are directly correlated is extremely dangerous and wrong and CANNOT be argued for. BlazingBird hit the nail on the head: The Crusades. On a side note, how can these guys say the sport isn't violent? It's the drating DEFINITION of violence! It's agreed violence between the contestants, rather than unwarranted violence, but it is violent nonetheless. They are hitting and kicking each other until blood spills on the mat. This pastor is foolish if he doesn't make the distinction between thrill of the sport and religious fervor |

Thursday, June 21, 2012 8:45:22 AM This is ridiculous. Trying to shoehorn in religion to justify your own desires/wants. |

Thursday, June 21, 2012 5:35:03 AM did that dead poo just say MMA wasn’t violent... really christians give up. the only people that would believe in this thing are people that get hit in the head repeatedly. |

Thursday, June 21, 2012 4:29:47 AM Goatse-man, I'm pretty sure the participants of this organization do a pretty good job of "bashing" on their own. Kind of like you were on the receiving end of before your namesake's infamous picture? |

Wednesday, June 20, 2012 11:40:22 PM Whatever it takes to sell the product. I don't see any reason why this is against the bible. The problem is pandering to the masses. |

Wednesday, June 20, 2012 11:28:44 PM A good christian neither punches nor blocks. A false Christian pretends the rules don't apply in these particular circumsances. |

Wednesday, June 20, 2012 5:14:53 PM I would totally pay to see Jesus hit someone with his cross in the face inside one of those MMA cage. I would even pay double if the guy getting hit is the Rock. |
