I admit that just because something has Eastern or mystic roots does not make it evil and yes a lot depends on teachers of such arts. However. So much of them like yoga is actually Eastern mystical practice and worship. the importance of understanding where such items are based is important because of the dangers to suffocating ones first love which should be Christ. It is not coincidence that individuals involved in such practices often have an extra amount of messed up in their lives. Satan is a counterfeiter and if he can't dominate our senses through something like lust or more obvious addiction why not through hidden sensuality or even hidden homage to pagan deities?
I don't think I've ever associated yoga, martial arts, dancing, or healthcare with evil. Some of those things definitely have their roots in Eastern culture, but I don't know that I believe that equates to something being evil. Although I suppose, like with most things, evil is more about the intention behind its use rather than the thing itself...
I noticed the other day that Dr. Dobson died and it reminded me that recently John MacArthur’ also passed away. Within the last couple of years several key individuals good and bad, some even unfortunately sold out to evil, yet bastions of remembrance are passing. The scary thing is if wisdom is not passed on it can be forgotten or twisted. Ronald Reagan said that we are always only one generation away from freedom's extinction In Judges 2 6-7 we see that once joshua and the elders who were with him passed away Israel forsook the Lord. I think one good question for America will it thrive or even survive, once the last generation of such molders truly passes?
