The kenpo technique naming just follows the CMA pattern of trying to give name that remind people of a similar motion. In some CMA systems, techniques have descriptive name that help in remembering (or would if you understood). For instance, there is a movement called Bow to Consort Goddess that is a choke, and one called Ask Bridge Toll Collector for Directions that is a complicated joint lock. It has nothing to do with actually believing in anything - one should have no more difficulty doing a choke called Bow to Consort Goddess without believing in said holy figure anymore than a person who would never ask a bridge's toll collector for direction should have a problem doing the joint lock.
