Yoga.... a Religion?

No more and no less than choral music is religion.  Is it?

Yoga is a technique for physical exercise.  Yes, it was developed by Hindu
mystics (even if it didn't originate with them).  But then, martial arts from
the Far East have similar religious ties.  Track and Field events have
religious ties to the gods the Greeks thought lived on Olympus.

If some Americans are opposed to physical exercise because of its "religious
origins," we're in trouble.
