I don't think they do martial arts :p They're usually at temples performing rituals or in streets begging for alms :)

That's why I asked if they are like the Shaolin Monks. :yeah:

Kinda, they are both mystical religions compared to the institutionalized religions like Christianity, btw is the Elder Toad 3000 years old? I have a suspicion that he and Rikudou knew each other, maybe even his contract summon :D

Have you been reading my theories? LOL!
I agree completely. The fact that their powers of sealing are unrivaled by any other clan and that they have the bodies to house the enormous chakra of Bijuu is a major clue to there being a priestly aspect to the Uzumaki clan.
I do disagree with your assertion that Rikoudo Sennin "discovered chakra" or "taught fuuinjutsu" to his clansmen. More than likely the whole clan already knew about fuuinjutsu and chakra itself. Don't forget that Rikoudo Sennin is famous for creating ninjutsu, applying the natural chakra to create elemental techs; no where is it said he created any other form of jutsu or taught anyone about chakra.
Other than that though I am with you. + Rep.

For we to actually know that, there has to be another flashback from someone even older that Hashirama, and what are the chances of that. . . . . . . . . :dunno:

Well knowing Kishi he's likely to reveal it after the dicothomy of Senju and Uchiha are resolved, he will then show the history and dicothomy of the destroyer (Juubi) and the savior (Rikudou) I think :p

About the Elder Toad, it seemed to me only he and Rikudou have shown the power of prophecy so I thought there might be a connection between them.

Where is Puppy Dog General? He should be convinced by this thread. He said that the sage couldn't be an Uzumaki because he came from a line of priests. That's the only argument he had against the Sage being Uzumaki.

But Shinto priests and priestesses do get married and have children, they're not like Catholic priests who are celibate.
