Yoga endangers your mortal Soul

Christians who practice yoga are embracing, or at minimum flirting with, a spiritual practice that threatens to transform their own spiritual lives into a ÔÇ£post-Christian, spiritually polyglotÔÇØ reality. Should any Christian willingly risk that?
If that wasnt enough, Janine Turner has co-opted yoga and made it Christian-safe aka a "Christoga" Dvd.

Knew you did, that those advanced yoga-poses damgage your soul. Always the pain you felt, when the soul, located in the spine above the ass, got in sudden touch with the ground, and felt the hell below it.

If there is a soul, there are ways to undamage it. Burn a witch, kill some pagans, dont make love to your neighboors donkey, instead love jizzus and everything will be fine and heal over time.

I always thought about creating my own religion for carefree selffunding and death through sexuall exaustion. ;)

If Yoga endangers your soul, I would think that any person who practices any sort of exercise that involves stretching, balancing (like acrobatics), breathing properly (swimming), and using your imagination would have their soul endangered. I think that history behind yoga is interesting (I also like to learn about the history behind a lot of other athletic activities) and know that it is often connected with some religions, but it seems silly to me to think that it would be harmful to someone if they weren't a part of that religion.

I like doing standing back-bends and all anyway. It helps to improve flexibility, balance, strength, involves using your ability to focus, and can even help your agility. This lady sounds like she's just trying to make a buck off of people and not emphasizing the really beneficial aspects, such as the ones that I have listed, of Yoga.

Yes, yoga will doom your soul. Luckily, alcohol gives the same benefits and is safe for christians!

But Christ himself did it, he invented the Cruxifix-position, good for legs and lungs.

Actually the Romans invented it, Christ just made it popular.

I don't have time to make a clever response to this but here are some coincidental links:

No no its real! Yoga panders to past pagan rituals and thus is flirtation with the devil and is thus endangering your mortal soul.

How about DrunkenMasterNoah
Or the ALotofWincest-Posture
