[MrPreachthecross]

praise the lord hes gonna be speaking in our church in a couple of weeks.thankyou lord for tony

[suissecarnifex]

Yeah the good old other cheek.....

[fdfgdgsdh]

this guy is amazing !!!

[Duckhugger]

"Kung-Fu Master"... yeah right? This guy is a total crank. Too bad most Christians aren't questioning enough to really tell when they're being scammed by a liar.

[YOUNGLEGIONNAIRE]

@Duckhugger Shut up. You dont even know stop judging.

[SlipperyDen]

What interests me most, is why read a book on a subject you don't believe in? Why, if you soon realise its a pack of lies, bother finishing it? Then after reading the fairy tail on the subject that means nothing to you, go to the effort of looking utube material up on the pointless topic and tell ppl about how worthless it all is? I'm off to Waterstones for some Lochness monster books. I don't believe theres a shred of truth in that myth either.

[thinkagain777]

find me please any sontemporary kung fu competition for that matter... he was fighting before the internet was invented do you realize that?

[thinkagain777]

for all of you who dont beleive his life story, do you realize that we are talking about china? censorship of any information, persecuting beleivers, communism, mass murder.... the bells are ringign now why you dont find infos on the internet about the competition results? did you know that in china you can learn aolmost only about their emperor, how great he was killing 80-100 million of his own people? you cant wathc YT att ALL! and so on and so on...

[WingChum]

@thinkagain777 I appreciate your ability to "think outside of the box" but I assume you have zero knowledge of Chinese Martial Arts?

Tony Anthony's book is so poorly fabricated a novice would even begin to suspect something was amiss.

He seems to have got most of his MIS-information from the 'Kung-Fu' TV series starring David Carradine, which included a great deal of Hollywood creativity that does not exist in real life.

Tony Anthony has never trained a day in his life.

[ShredST]

@thinkagain777 You obviously know nothing about China. Censorship of all information? If you spent any time learning about China, you would know that is not true at all.

[thinkagain777]

@ShredST yeah...sure...my friend was in china a month ago...he could not watch youtube videos, online videos, he couldnt visit loads of sites...so oviously you have no ideea what you are talking about...

[ShredST]

@thinkagain777 Being unable to access certain video sites is far different from being unable to get any outside information at all.

[thinkagain777]

@ShredST yeah, sure you can find outside infos...like how great and beautiful is comunism in other countries and how great is the chineze government... agree

[ShredST]

@thinkagain777 Again. If you spent any time doing any research on China, you would know that is not true.

[ShredST]

@thinkagain777 Furthermore, the fact there are foreign journalists in China should disapprove your point.

[thinkagain777]

@ShredST dosnt disapprove at all... there are everyhwere foreign junalists...so whats the point?.. they write what they are told anyway and what they are allowed... or you realy think they can write/ publish whatever they want to the private/corporate/mainstream-l­iar-whore media?...think again...

[ShredST]

@thinkagain777 Think again? You're unbelievable. Google "China" and see how many of the resulting articles praise the glory of communism.

[Dust0fNation]

i cant belive this, i just finish hes book, it was an amazing story but the biggest lie i ever read....how can this guy go in other countrys and share with other people hes testimony when almost everything is lie...i've search him on internet and looks like he dont have any prove about hes past, he wasn't a Kung Fu champion in that years he mentioned, Clive Parkinson was the true champion..looks like no one know anything about hes past!... this was a great book, anyway this guy disappointed me

[beechwood74]

The proof of God's existence is that he came to Earth as Jesus Christ and that man is was and will continue to be the most influential person in human history. Tony Anthony and millions of other people's lives have been changed by accepting Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Saviour. He loves every one of you on here despite what you write. Nothing will stop him loving every human on this planet. God bless you all.

[TonyDude94]

@tonowicz1 Why wouldnt I believe that?

[tonowicz1]

@uksna Your comprehension skills are a little debilitated, so let me clarify what was already a clear point. I said that he has no evidence for his claims, which therefore draws parallels with religious assertions. If you have some concrete evidence for either Tony's, or any particular religious group's declarations, then I'm all ears.

[TonyDude94]

For people who say hes a fraud, Tony Anthony is not his real name, he changed his name because he stopped kung fu and was the last well trained person in his lineage, his 'family' in china would be ready to kill him for not passing on his knowledge

[tonowicz1]

@TonyDude94 You're simply willing to believe anything, aren't you?

[ShredST]

@TonyDude94 haha. Kill him for not passing on his knowledge? Someone's buying this kung fu movie crap way too much.

[VoodooRock01]

@yeeukui How can you say that? I don't mean it in an offensiveway, trying to start an argument; I'm just wondering if you wouldn't mind backing up your argument with some evidence?

[ocyrus70]

A very good read love the part about hiking through the Saudi desert with just a small bottle of evian pure class lol tony tony tony you make bear grylls look like a amature!!..

[tonowicz1]

@ocyrus70 I see now that Bear Grylls invites celebrities on his show. Perhaps he might like to invite Tony. It would be fascinating.

[stephenbb8006]

this guy is a total fraud. any1 whos read his book and knows ANYTHING about Martial Arts knows hes a joker. His story is like a bad JKVD film. Google his name followed by bullshido.

[yeeukui]

I have read his book. Total FICTION! He has no knowledge of kung fu or china for that matter. What a Walt!

[yeeukui]

I have read his book. Total FICTION! He has no knowledge of kung fu or china for that matter. What a Walt!

[Nextel025]

Hey, I'm a Christian, but I also like logic and facts. I wouldn't demand God for such things, but I think it's reasonable to expect them from this man. When Tony gives me a little evidence of his heroic past life rather than a book which has sold millions of copies, then maybe I'll be more apt to believe it. I'm not saying he is a liar, I'm just saying that I can't believe him at this point; maybe he does have an awesome testimony.

[tonowicz1]

@Nextel025 what's the difference between tony's book and the bible? Why do you demand evidence from one and not the other?

[coolguy701]

@tonowicz1 i would love to talk to you in email if that possible. so that i may speak to you as a friend, not in public view. please just give me a chance to say some things and i will gladly listen to your testimonies as well.

[agentyellow34]

he says he was worldchampion in kung fu. Can he be remembered by anyone as this kung fu champ?

[TheCannonFist]

For the truth about Tony Anthony, check out the 64 page thread on the bullshido forum.

[lizellethegazelle]

I totally agree with boogerbuckstex. I was under the impression that the lord hand meant for us to stand strong for our convictions. !!! And that would mean to defend our faith and friends.

[matthei1996]

i searched on google about the kung fu world champions in the years he said he was and i didn't find him...so i thought, maybe the kung fu officials deleted any evidence about his winnings, or he is a liar as other people say... until he shows his medals or any evidence that he won, i don't believe his story.

[boogerbuckstex]

Turning the other cheek referred to a custom in Jesus day whereby if you despised someone you hit him on the right cheek with the back of your right hand. So you turn the other cheek, forcing your enemy to use the palm of his right hand and thereby show you respect as an equal. Jesus would never have allowed someone to rape his mother. he didn't become vulnerable to danger till it was time for Him to die on the cross. Why should we be vulnerable all our lives? Are we stronger than He is?

[boogerbuckstex]

In Luke 22:35-38 Jesus told His disciples to buy swords, perhaps for self-defense. In Luke 19:27 jesus warned He'd someday destroy His enemies. Does Anthony believe a Christian should allow some creep to attack a loved one in a dark alley and tell them to just turn the other cheek? There is such a thing as throwing pearls to the swine. Some people are so rotten they'll NEVER repent, and they do rotten things just because they think God will always let them off the hook and love them anyway

[boogerbuckstex]

should a christian man forgive a criminal who's about to assault his wife, and just let him do it? Why did Jesus tell his disciples to a sword before he was arrested in the Garden? Starting a fight is wrong, and physical self-defense should be a last resort if you can't get away. Should a Christian parent let a gang beat up his small child and tell the kid to turn the other cheek? Jesus warned His enemies would be destroyed: Luke 19:27. The Gospel of Ned Flanders: Just Be Nice.

[Macchiato78]

Tony, you are so completely full of it.

People, please click on page 52 of the bullshido forum titled

'Southend-on-Sea, England: Kung Fu master Tony Anthony and Avanti Ministries' and you'll get a sense of why Tony is a fraud. Page 58 of that forum also highlights some key questions which remain unanswered.

Tony also went to jail for a hit and run accident in 2001. He and his wife both lied to police.

Do you really want to pay money to this kind of human?

[gsr4me]

@Macchiato78 yeah he says he went to jail in his book... its not a secret...

[Streetsofblack]

@gsr4me

Yeah but he dosen't say its because he acted like a twat and got into a hit and run, He claims he was a hitman/bodyguard and killed many people <(complete horse shit like the rest of redicioulus claims)

[gsr4me]

@Streetsofblack lol well actually he does say in his book he went to jail for a hit and run.... good work sunshine haha

[Streetsofblack]

@gsr4me

oh, still I stand by the fact that he's a complete and utter bullshit artist, and still claims all the hitman shit.

[Macchiato78]

This guy is either a con artist or delusional. The claims he makes are utterly ridiculous. He can't substantiate them at all and goes out of his way to evade questioning.

The amusing thing is that he is also too stupid or lazy to have properly researched his lies in advance.

Google 'Tony Anthony fraud' and you should find a page that explains this in detail. If you still believe him you almost deserve to be ripped off by this charlatan.

[bobbelibob]

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who thinks he's a liar or a fantast. But it's a bit frightening that so many people actually believe his stories are true.

[tonybaxter2006]

LOOKING FOR KUNG FU WORLD CHAMPIONS THERE;S NO TRACE ABOUT TONY ANTHONY.....HMHMHMHMMMM

[jolemez]

@tonybaxter2006 His story is so poorly researched I think even someone with a passing knowledge of chinese Kung-Fu can see he made it all up.

He has been asked by several interested parties over the last few years to answer a few questions that would establish some facts regarding his tales but he has avoided them all by sidestepping and misdirection.

[tonybaxter2006]

@jolemez and he looks ''a bit retarded''......

[whitenightf3]

@tonybaxter2006 have you tried to find him under his Chinese name?

[triggerchelsea1]

Psalm 14 v1, The fool says in his heart, 'there is no God'.

[Bebopchiflow]

Does this guy have a school in montana?

[Toyomata]

I don't think what he said is the true meaning. I have come to believe that, to turn the other cheek implies paitience. Not to be a total pacifist.

[Bolton651]

Probably a nice bloke but something about the book just doesn't ring true. No photo's in it for a start, I have yet to read a biography or auto biography that does not have at least 2 pages with some photos and also his book is to, to precise. He tried to hit me with the flying fist of Judah but I countered that with a 9 inch deep pan toe poke, nah I don't think so somehow. As I say probably a nice bloke but for me the book seems to precisley written to be true.

[corazoncito77]

@Bolton651 When my bf gets into a fight, he relates everything VERY (it gets even annoying sometimes) VERY precisely. :)

[wearethepeople08]

would anybody like to inform us of what the so called lies are?lots of people calling him a liar..nobody has given 1 single example..

[Liiiamx]

@wearethepeople08 He is supposedly 4x world chapion but no kung-fu records are recorded for his so called achomplishments.

I dont know whats true

[wearethepeople08]

liam i saw tony anthony last night in edinburgh and he's not lying.just because someone on youtube says theres no records doesnt mean anything.i doubt tony even knows about the criticisms hes getting online

[butolina]

@wearethepeople08 all

[morningrunner123]

You'd think he'd put up a huge list of contacts and evidence on his website to back his claims up, with all this shit hitting the fan.

[morningrunner123]

don't like this guy much

[morningrunner123]

Hmmmmmm ...... The fact, that an event is mathematecally very unlikely does not make it impossible to happen......

But still very unlikely....

[morningrunner123]

bloody christians will believe anything thata written down in a book

[morningrunner123]

sdfgsdfgsdfg

[goodmorningmad]

You can email him for a free DVD that contains interviews with various people, including evidence of him being a kung fu champion. Youtube doesn't allow me to post an email address here so you can do his avantiministries website and leave a message on wanting the DVD. In any case, God exists and is real regardless of whether he's lying.

[WingChum]

He IS lying and actually bringing Christianity into further disrepute by the amount of people who "buy into" his lies.

Anyone who has read his book and has even a casual knowledge of Chinses Kung-Fu's history & tradition can see SOME of the many factual mistakes he has made.

[sleepykid156]

this guy is an outright lier.

[00poikl]

The thread at bullshido gives no evidences, only some assumptions! The fact, that an event is mathematecally very unlikely does not make it impossible to happen. And changing your name is no crime either. Especially when you are persecuted. SO as long as there are no proves, its wrong to call him a liar...

[thetruthaboutbjb]

The thread at bullshido clearly shows that a) nobody, not Tony's publisher, agent or ghost writer checked Tony's incredible story in any way. It shows that Tony stole his teaching materials from another Christian evangelist and that Tony refuses to answer questions regarding the numerous inconsistencies in his "memoir". Tony could prove that he was telling the truth if he answered questions but he just avoids them. Read it for yourselves people

[LaoTzuButterfly]

Check out the forum at Bullshido about Tony Anthony. He's a 100% fraud.

[TheFendermaniac]

he is coming to talk in a christian youth event in limmasol cyprus its gonna be awesome!

[stedmanbnicely]

There are NO links to substantiate Tony Anthony's kung fu claims. His claims are indeed incredible and fantastical. That is because they are totally untrue.

[thetruthaboutbjb]

Can anyone please post any links to substantiate Tony's claims to be a kung fu champion?

This is important as his claims sound incredible and fantastical to anyone with a knowledge of martial arts.

Is there any way at all Tony can prove any of his claims other than the fact that he was in prison in Cyprus, which I don't doubt.

[stedmanbnicely]

|Check out the forum at bullshido. Tony Anthony is a liar and a fraud. His wikipedia page was removed because his ludicrous claims are entirely unsubstantiated.

[takeiteasyplz]

Shit, this dude is comming to my school on friday...

[JokerDK84]

I just finished reading Tony Anthonys book. Its great!

[bebe444444]

It is!

[tonowicz1]

a pure loon liar preaching to other loons. No strand of evidence for any of his claims - which is perfectly in suit of Christians in general. Who needs evidence when you have faith, right?

[777agapelive777]

I suppose that you know that you are quoting the great Rabbi Saul (1st century AD) in the last sentence of your comment who said:

"Faith is the subtance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). He also wrote other wise things such as:

"The foolishness (looniness) of this world is wiser than men...but God has chosen the foolishness (looniness) of the world to confound the wise." (His first letter to the Corinthians 1:25 & 27).

.

[tonowicz1]

@777agapelive777 You sir, are an idiot of the highest order. I can barely find the will to respond to your inanity. There is a gargantuan difference between the learned who are aware of their inadequacies, and of the inadequate who think being a genuine idiot is somehow ingenious. You post quotes, but you have no idea what they mean, and in fact interpret them in the most utterly, superficially, prejudiced manner.

[coolguy701]

@tonowicz1 ive met so many people to speak like you. so angry. is love not real? is the ability to love someone who hates you not supernatural? i do no believe that you will every seek and truly understand God, but i am 100 percent sure that one day in your life, He will find you, and tender your heart. im not here to argue, im no better than anybody on this earth. the things ive done i might as well be a murderer. but we dont have to live this life of suffering forever. theres a way out.

[chreberle]

"Amen" to that - lol. Man, this Tony Anthony is telling super-bullshit! He NEVER EVER was trained in Kung Fu the way he writes in his "biography". It's like kung fu movie clichees mixed up and super-exaggerated. What a crap. And I train martial arts! I don't believe - I KNOW - this man is a liar, a faker and a big joke!

[fasteskiller]

You dont know mate. You !assume! that Tony Anthony is not telling the truth on this, but its the word of a youtuber against that of a biography writer of his own story. Aswell I do believe you never heard of the way real kung fu masters get trained, if you study the books and records on this, the way a real kung fu fighter is trained by a master in the art, it is even harder then Tony tsays. You are just giving your judgement about a man you dont know a shit about.

[chreberle]

Ha ha - and you "KNOW" that he's telling the "truth"... because of WHAT?

How about LOGIC, man! Only because he preaches about god, doesn't mean that he was ever trained in Kung Fu. And by the way: There are so many things he mentions in his "biography" that can be PROOFED as untrue. It would be so easy: This Anthony guy should just proof his claims - for example in showing some Kung Fu techniques and his brandings.

[thetruthaboutbjb]

If you take the time to read the thread on Bullshido you will see that various people, including devout Christians and experienced martial artists, have contacted Tony Anthony's publisher and ghost writer and that neither had taken any steps whatsoever to research and / or validate Tony's account of his life story.

Tony has refused to answer questions and cannot prove anything at all. He even admitted that Tony Anthony is not even his real name.

[fasteskiller]

Where in my reply do you see that I am saying he is telling the truth? I am only saying that it is bull shit that you are giving your judgement about Tony Anthony without knowing it for real.

[chreberle]

It's quite easy: As I know many things about martial arts, training martial arts myself - I can say that he is telling so much shit it's unbelievable. His "biography" may be a good piece of fiction, but nothing more!

[thetruthaboutbjb]

So you are not saying that he is telling the truth, just criticizing others for judging him?

Why don't you read the thread about him on Bullshido? If you do you will see exactly why so many people believe that his book and his life story are a work of fiction.

[Patrickthedutch]

@tonowicz1

same for evolutionists, who need evidence when you have faith ?

After disproving the one thousand so called FACT of evolution, they still keep on believing.

[tonowicz1]

@Patrickthedutch evolutionists don't have faith in evolution! It's not a belief system, do you have faith or belief in the theory of gravity? Please read a little - google 'evolution of sea aquirts'. I would advise you check Wikipedia, bullshido(dot)net and your own sanity and ability to perceive truths.

[Patrickthedutch]

@tonowicz1 @tonowicz1 Creationists don't have faith in creation! It's not a belief system, do you have faith or belief in the theory of gravity?

Creation is a fact ! And you can see it everywhere.

haha,

Hey i googled that thingy you said.

But what exactly do i have to read ?

[tonowicz1]

@Patrickthedutch You require help using search tools? That fits the pattern! 'Check out the 40+ pages on this man at the Bullshido forum. Just google 'Tony Anthony bullshido' and take the time to read it.' I sincerely hope you're being ironic.

[Patrickthedutch]

@tonowicz1

i need to check on our friend tony ?

I dont need to check him. from here i can tell that man is a big FAKE.

[ShalimJacob]

He came to my Church, hes a great man of God

[chreberle]

maybe... but he NEVER was a Kung Fu master!

Did he show his brandings on his arms? Where are they? Brandings like he describes don't go away!

[modjaffamodjaffa]

Im reading his book right now:P
