"So what? All you're saying is if I compare Shaolin-Do with any other TCMA, then I'd notice a difference. No kidding?!"
You're saying "all your saying" as if it's inconsequential..believe me--it's pretty important!!
"My problem is that you, an anonymous non-entity, says Shaolin Do is fake because it doesn't have the similar trappings of other TCMA's in the U.S."
I'll say it again. I'm sure it exists..I'm just saying it's not a kung fu style.
"My point is: why should I care what you think?"
TaDa!! You shouldn't!
"I don't know anything about you, what (if any) martial art you study, where your school is located, who is the source of your kung fu material or if you've even participated in a class at Shaolin Do."
Does it matter where I study? If I participated in a SD class would I be given the opportunity to learn all 900 forms ?
LOL
"Have you, or are you simply making generalized statements from what you've seen on the internet."
Go back and re-read what I stated about styles calling themselves kung fu but really aren't. You made the gesture I should take up SD. I'll return the favor..study a legit kung fu style and then tell me what you notice. If it matters...I study 8 step mantis.

"Why does it bother you that Shaolin Do exists?"
It doesn't. It makes me laugh about the 900 forms claim, the claim that Shaolin is a system and the claim that Wolfman/Sin Kwang The are/were the "grandmasters of the Shaolin temple". Such malapropism. It's like saying "The church we go to has a great Rabbi leading the congregation in the ways of Islam".
"There's nothing you can do about it except pi$$ and moan, and we really don't want to hear it."
Then don't read what I write. And if SD was a legit kung fu style..this thread would be less than a page long..not over 300!!
