    Norris has written several books about Zen and martial arts. I’ve read one of them. I disagree with his politics but he’s not dumb at all.

    Zen does not exist. With that out of the way, he thinks the Bible is literal truth, with evolution, and specifically natural selection, a great hoax. You should go read his rants on World Nut Daily. Norris and his wife have been spouting nonsense about how America needs a holy war to fight threats to its existence. He has been a totalitarian supporter for a long time, at least the American version of it. If he is not stupid, he is mentally ill.

      A person is not stupid just because they disagree that Natural Selection is a sufficient explanation for the great diversity of species we observe. What is scary is that people call other mentally ill for having a different opinion about how the empirical facts are best explained.

    The lack of facial expression while acting is something most competition fighters face, since they trained themselves to be expressionless while fighting. Van Damme has the same problem.

    He was the first American to get a Black Belt in Karate (while in Korea in the Army in the early 1950’s), was a full contact champion back when all they did was wrap their knuckles, and was born dirt poor.
