Just to clarify the logo issue a bit. The ones from fcsproductions.com are part of the Filipino Combat Systems On Line Training Center. Rico Cortes along with others belonging to the Filipino Combat Systems Brotherhood of Puerto Rico--that's the ying/yang triangle sword logo that YYZ first posted. The owner of the site is Ray Dionaldo, LD Stone and Peter Denis Jr.

In Rico's profile in his martialmatrix website, we will extract excerpts of his personal profile:

Rico Cortes > "Favorite Martial Artist:
Tuhon Ray Dionaldo, Shihan Lou Ferrer, Guro Dan Inosanto "

Dianoldo is listed as Rico Cortes Favorite martial artist. Rico uses Dianoldo's site to promote and sell his martial art instruction stuff. Money1

In Rico Cortes martialmatrix pages, where his followers at times refer to him as master, or teacher, and it is common to be bowed to, Sign0082

and he is listed as Lakan Guro--meaning

Quote:"...Instructor Ranks
Lakan Guro – is a first level teacher. A Lakan Guro is an advanced student who is learning how to teach and lead by serving as an assistant instructor.

Guro – guro means teacher. This is someone who is a full instructor and is able to teach the technical skills of Pekiti Tirsia. texaskali.org/pekiti/ptranking.htm

It's also on his martialmatrix forum pages that Rico also posts under the username of "kohen of war"---meaning, 'priest of war'.

"kohen of war" had joined this forum in August, but never activated his account, although I personally contacted his personal email to remind him he needed to activate his account- Noooooo

-that contact email was that of Rico Cortes' Wisdom in Torah spanish email. He never responded and the registration was eventually deleted as per normal practice. Th_ththink

Perhaps someone else uses Rico Cortes personal email from his Wisdom in Torah website as well as his email from the martial arts site, that is, the one that victormanual is using.

Isn't it a little odd to have 'two' other people make use of one's ministry and martial arts email accounts? 443

Victor never answered that query before...and I suspect he won't actually answer anything of substance now. Connie_29

The following is the Logo I was originally discussing. We see this comment posted by an admirer of Lakan Guro Rico Cortes:

Are you already back home ? O_O.

Thank you for the comment on the logo, surely we could print some t-shirts but I think we decided to get the [as i call it at least] as a logo. I don't know for sure which one we are going to use. I have to talk with Vangelis I will inform you though and for sure I will send over some when they are ready :D.

Based on that discussion we can deduce that 1) Rico Cortes liked the design and 2) Rico Cortes was wanting some version of it to use, whether on said t-shirts or other apparel or for other uses.

Now let's evaluate this logo. It's a triangle wrapped and intertwined, making it appear as a triskele.

Go to http://www.seekgod.ca/warning.htm and scroll down to the information on Triskeles. If anyone wishes to analyse this logo further --please do.

1Th 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.

Php 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
