As always, best to read up the various sources to know the answer to anything which one is not sure about. Train hard, train well and to the best of your ability... Regards, Kalam. " Dear Kalam > Thank you for your e-mail regarding clarification of the work "Jihad". It was not me however who wrote or sent anything regarding the topic to either the forum or its members. There must be a mixup. Best of luck with your training anyway.

Shouldn't be a hard concept to grasp, as we have many examples of how Christianity can be twisted and used to do very un-Christian things. --__--__-- Message: 3 Subject: RE: [Eskrima] Re: Jihad Date: Wed, 24 May 2006 13:59:16 -0400 From: "Ken Borowiec" To: Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Amen to that.
