“Ignorance is a terrible thing. It leads to rush to judgement and very inappropriate comparisons.”
Have to agree with this statement.
I am a devout practicing Christian and yoga helps me get closer to God. I am in constant prayer to Jesus when practicing. It is a very spiritual, Christian experience.

Yoga is not Christian. You may be using Yoga like exercises but you are not doing yoga.
Try 10 yoga programs and tell me how many mention Christ during their push for spirituality.

My friend stands on his head, crosses his legs, brings his hands together in the position of prayer and while focusing on a picture of Krishna as a child, meditates ~ and asks for luck and fortune.
A Christian could do very much what he does right up to the point of "asks for luck" ~ because THAT WOULD BE WRONG.
It's what's in your mind, not how you flex your calves (except for the Baptists).

Do you call upon the Hindu gods to get you closer to Jesus?
