Sorry David, you're a bit confused. Those aren't the 'undeniable truths' - they're actually the 'unwritten rules'.

As we can clearly see, 1. holds an empty premise which, as 2. and 3. build on the supposed foundation of 1. it can be clearly seen these are not true (wags teacherly finger at David).

- They don't exist
- If they did exist I couldn't tell you they exist
- If they did exist and I did tell you I'd have to
- kill you - or
- kill myself - or
- turn the computer off and tidy my room like mum said to

No, you are wrong. The founder of ninjutsu clearly states in his first book, 'Ninjutsu, The Art of Invisibility', and I quote, "
."
You must be thinking of the teachings of one of his disgruntled students who felt there was not enough emphasis on the internal aspect of the art and split with his master to found the Clan of the White Clad Ninjas. He tried to change undeniable truth #1 and the following video is the results.

Re: What do you consider are the 3 undeniable truths to being a Ninja ?
1. Ninjas have Awesome Power, and by Awesome, I mean "totally sweet."
2. Ninjas flip out and kill people, like if you drop a fork or spoon, they will totally go berserk and kill the whole town.
3. Ninjas are mammals.
What more do you need to know?  Go to the Real Ultimate Power site and study up.

My God, the legendary no-write argument!!! Throws in towel and acknowledges shameful defeat!
I shall crawl into my hole to play with my Ki and count my losses like a miser with his last coin. But beware, for just like the smell of the gi you left in your other bag and forgot for a week, I will rise again even more powerful than you can imagine.

Re: What do you consider are the 3 undeniable truths to being a Ninja ?
1. If they didn't exist you'd have to invent them
2. You are never more than 6' from a ninja
3. If you ever see a ninja, it is a ninja ghost and you have just been killed by a ninja
3.1. When it says "died of natural causes", "died in their sleep", "died whilst spewing up gasoline onto a fire" or "died whilst making love" the actual cause of death was: ninja.

Ken asked the same question over on E-Budo last month. I answered there, and I'll answer it again here.
The conditions of a solitary ninja are five:
First, that it flips out to the highest point.
Second, that it does not seek after company, except hot babes.
Third, that it aims its boner to the wind.
Fourth, that it has no definite color, unless it is dressed in black.
Fifth, that it wails on its guitar softly to itself.
