Where does it say the monk does holy damage? I only see things that say the monk is holy.

Can someone please explain to me how the Monk is anything like an assassin and paladin mix? From what I understand, the monk is a fast attacking, high damage dealer with low armor. He has combo skills like the assassin so that makes them somewhat similar. But the assassin wasn't as fast as monk nor was it as much of a damage dealer as the monk is. Plus people are forgetting the assassin martial arts sucked and weren't very fast (except maybe a couple..) and the assassin had traps. But here is what drives me crazy though, how is the monk anything like the paladin? Paladin had high defense from holy shield and maybe defiance if you used that for some reason. Paladin only had one quick spell which was zeal, and could hit reasonably fast with fanaticism, and he used auras that helped the entire party. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the monk has no auras that effect the entire party nor does he have high defense. I think people are just saying he is a paladin mix is because he has some sort of religious background... I can't remember if they said the monk uses holy damage or not also. If anything the monk is somewhat like the assassin.
How come the monk can't be just a new class, come on people no matter what class is released people will always somehow find a way to link them to a previous diablo character that only had like one spell in common. (same with WD and necro.. they are hardly identical they just uses "darker" spells like the ability to summon a creature. I bet if instead of the WD they released a different character with dark powers some idiot would have linked it to the necro to..)

Please provide evidence if you are going to try to prove me wrong kthx. feel free to say whatever :cool:
