Yes, thats what I said, other anon. Religion is used by some as an ideology, a weapon, to justify war and opression. The same goes for Amon's brand of "equality". He uses the threat of bending gangs to justify his actions.

Also, Amon is the name of a real pressure point on the back of the neck. When Amon attacked Lightning Bolt Zolt, he attacked this amon point, along with another on the forehead. This just gives more proof that Amon is not an energybender. However, Aang hit a point on the head and a point on the chest to "energybend". Rather than energybending, Amon has above average chi-blocking abilities, ranked as so: "Energybending" > Amon's skill > Regular Chi Blocking. Knowlege of this form of chi-blocking was probably developed by him, rather than obtained from a spirit a he claims.

Most importantly, do you guys remember the end of season two, when Aang was hit by Azula and his chakra was blocked, and his connection to the Avatar State was broken? I see what Amon has done to those benders as to what Azula unintentionally did to Aang. Aang's chakra block was relativley permanent, and was only undone by chance, not through normal means. Amon's chi-blocking form is similar.
