Do people think yoga is demonic in your country?
>America
>Yes
I grew up around evangelicals who thought yoga and meditation was like summoning demons or whatever. Almost as bad to them as pokemon.
>>

Evangelical Christians hated Pokémon?
>>
>>221763524
Yes, because the pokemon "evolved" and eviltution is le bad.
My evangelical neighbor friend said "it's not God's way" and covered his eyes like I was showing him porn when I tried to show him my pokemon games in middle school.

yes, how old are you? This was a major culture war bullshit by chuds in the early 2000s. Why do you think atheism became such a big thing with millennials?

Yoga isn’t demonic but it is idolatry, my wife went to a Yoga class once a few years back and at the end they all chanted in unison Shanti Shanti Shanti and she felt super Ackward about it and left. It is a Hindu practice that introduces Avoda Zara so me and my wife don’t do Yoga due to this. My mom actually calls it “Goya”, it was in one of her Kabbalah classes kek

>>221763510
Why even call it yoga? Just give it a different name, who cares? Jeets didn't invent stretching. The vast majority of Indians didn't give a fuck about yoga for centuries, until Western hippies started going to that shithole in the 60's and 70's, and brought it back to the US and Europe.

every yoga group turns into a sex cult for 40 year old women
>>
>>221764833
White women in the 1970s unironically had nothing better to do than start/join yoga sex cults.
>>
No
Yoga is European gymnastics that an Indian stole and rebranded

And isn't most of Buddhism derived from Hinduism? Buddhism didn't spawn in a vacuum
>>
>>221765305
Buddhism is good because yellow asians do it.
Hinduism is bad because brown asians do it.
>>
>>221765305
Buddhism just says there anatman (no Self) and Hinduism says there is atman (Self)

Some Christians here got panicked about Harry Potter. One of my mates was never allowed to watch it at the cinema because of his Christian parents
>>
>>221765322
Asians don't practice Buddhism anymore. China and Japan are irreligous. Koreans are Christian
>>
>>221765340
The Harry Potter stuff I remember
>>
>>221765305
No
Buddhism descends from Brahmanism which Hinduism also descends from
Hinduism is quite late
>>
>>221765340
They were also afraid of Dungeons and Dragons lmao. Crazy how these things are more popular than ever but the evangelic crowd are quiet about it.
>>
>>221765416
Hinduism is just devotional Brahmanism with a de-emphasis on ritualism
>>
>>221765340
My parents had friends who were worried about me watching the sorcerers stone on VHS.

They're not, they just learned to change their rhetoric. Things that are ungodly are deemed "problematic" or "sexualizating minors/animals/women". They learned to change their rhetoric as a way to get the public on their side.
