I am Protestant, not Catholic but there is one Lord, one faith, and one baptism so all believers in Christ are united in one body, the church. While you guys arrogantly mock and sneer at what the Catholic Bishop stated, he is right and you are wrong.
Yoga is a spiritual practice based originating from India and based on spiritual practices from their religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. Do your own research if you don't believe it. Yoga was introduced to the West in the 1800's and people were attracted to it because it was "exotic". It has over the last few decades became more popular. Most Americans practicing yoga have no idea of its spiritual roots or what they're opening themselves up to when they chant the names of the gods of those religions. Yoga is not just a simple set of physical exercises even if that is how it is introduced to you. The more advanced a person becomes in yoga the more they will be lead to tap into the spiritual dynamics of the false religions from which yoga is based. That will lead you further and further away from the true faith of Jesus Christ (although at least one poster has already proudly bragged about being a heathen) into spiritual darkness and deceit which is part and parcel of pagan worship also known as false religion(s).
Your opinion is no better than any other poster on here get off your high horse about Christianity. Talk about arrogance. chill out read your bible. Buddhism has aspects about it that are just as interesting as Christianity in my opinion. Yoga isn't my thing but to each his own. Priests get mocked all the time they should be used to it, big deal active Catholics talk crap about priests all the time I grew up in the Church I know what they're about.

I got news for you. Sunday worship actually started as a pagan day of worship (for the Sun God, Apollo, Duh!). Real Christians way back when do not do their worshiping on Sunday because it is a pagan day of worship.
Also, Dec 25 is Apollo's birthday. Anyone celebrating Christmas is in reality celebrating a pagan ritual.
We can dwell on these stupid rituals that started centuries ago but has since lost its paganess or we can be dumb. Just note that by that standard, even Christianity today is diluted.
