  • AFA: Only evil heathens practice yoga

    From Matt Munson@1:218/700 to All on Thu May 12 11:54:30 2011
    The American Family Association says that yoga practitioners are evil and anti-Christian. Oh, and Hindus and Buddhists? Also evil!
    These people need to buy a Bible - and read it. The professing Christian who practices yoga as a way to keep fit should heed the words of Mohler and Groothuis who both agree that yoga, even if it's labeled Christian, is diametrically opposed to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Many Christians practice yoga for "relaxation and exercise" without realizing that classical yoga is intended to put you into an altered state of consciousness. Yoga is not "just exercising." Participants are being swept into a counterfeit religion. According to God's Word, pagan religions, such as Hinduism and Buddhism, are evil. The Bible clearly says that God's people are to have nothing to do with wicked customs. (Deuteronomy 18:9-14) Believers are instructed to, "Hate what is evil; cling to what is good." (Romans 12:90) Ever noticed how professing Christians are no longer uncomfortable in the face of evil? The reason is that we have been desensitized!

    One man's religion is another man's belly laugh.

    I laugh _a lot_.
