Pastor: Stop going to yoga, it's 'demonic'

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — A pastor of an Assemblies of God megachurch recently took aim at yoga, saying it has "demonic roots" and warning Christians to avoid the popular activity.

Pastor John Lindell told the attendees of James River Church in Ozark, Missouri — which has a congregation of about 10,500, according to a 2016 report — that the positions in yoga were "created with demonic intent to open you up to demonic power because Hinduism is demonic."

Religion is absolute insanity, and anyone who lets this halfwit fascist loon preacher tell them what to do is a fucking spineless brainwashed moron. I mean how do people actually believe this shit? Humans are delusional sheep.

10,500 registered parishioners makes a "mega Church"? Who knew!! By that reasoning, I figure most urban churches are now mega-churches. talk about a non-story. Slow news day or just needed your Christian hatred fix?

You want nice from me? Be nice to me. It's a pretty simple concept.

A megachurch is defined by the Hartford Institute as any Protestant Christian church having 2,000 or more people in average weekend attendance.

This has been a belief in fundamentalist circles for years--like, since yoga started becoming popular decades ago.
