Martial Arts are Causing the Decline of America!

By Al Case


That Martial Arts are the real reason for America's woes is plain to see. The lack of martial art training causes a lack of personal discipline, a loss of self worth, and the decline of individual responsibility. This, correspondingly, has caused the decline of America.

Now, we can rail about the corporations, the president being a communist, the unions trying to get something for nothing, and while there is going to be a certain amount of truth in such things, the personal responsibility for change is still going to fall upon the individual. The sad fact, you see, is that more than 1 out of every 10 Americans over the age of 12 is on meds for depression. This is not responsibility, this is band aids for battle wounds.

So many people are taking antidepressants like prozac, and there has been a direct link established between such drugs and suicide. How many people commit suicide because they exercise in something like jujitsu or aikido? Not too awful many.

So instead of ingesting tablets when they get depressed, Americans should be signing up for that tai chi class, or going to a self defense class, or sweating a little to learn a karate form. Instead of believing in the drug companies and following the orders of the family medical quack. Wouldn't it be better to learn some ancient and diehard kung fu, get interested in a foreign culture, find out something out about your real self?

Heck, the family medico is trained in medicine, not what the mind does. And let's be honest...psychiatry isn't really a real science, anyway. And even if these facts weren't so obviously true, a whopping one out of four patients are misdiagnosed and given pills!

The real cure for this mental health quackery is actually pretty simple. The real cure has to do with creating a good lifestyle, eating healthy foods, getting enough sleep, and learning how to handle problems. These solutions are what a martial artist naturally learns during the course of his training, and this brings us to the magic three answers of real mental health.

Number one, avoid sweeteners,modified (genetically and otherwise) foods, and, in specific, all processed foods. Number two, do a cleanse of some sort to get rid of the toxins already in your body. Number three, exercise, use such things as Karate or Kung Fu or Taekwondo to get your body in top shape, and keep it in top shape.

Heck, we all know that drugs don't really cure anything, and the real wounds fester, actually causing the individual's mental health to worsen. Martial Arts, however, establish good health, the human being wakes up and takes responsibility, and becomes an integrated and healthy spirit. So this is the truth of what I mean when I say that lack of martial arts is causing the decline of America!
