You were weak and susceptible and your faith was not that strong to begin with

No offense

Don’t project that on all Christian yoga practitioners

What influenced me from the perspective of not Christ like?

Prolly materialism and sex

With beautiful women

But if you went to yoga innocently and became a Satan worshippers

That defies my 25 years experience around it

You are right - I was not a believer when yoga sucked me in. But the Bible says we need to be careful not to cause the weak (me in this case) to stumble. When a church hosts a yoga class, they are giving it their stamp of approval. Those of weak or uncertain faith can be drawn in very easily.

I have no problem with strong believers doing yoga for exercise if they can avoid the emptying of their mind and can separate the physical exercise from the philosophical and spiritual underpinnings. I just want to emphasize that a wholesale endorsement of yoga can cause people to stumble.
