http://www.cbc.ca/canada/british-columbia/story/2007/01/09/bc-yoga.html?ref=rssHi Evan,
Yoga is religion.. Sorry but, This affirmation is totally right..
The word Yoga, comes from yuj, means link or relink, in the sense to conect again the man to something necessary to his spirit.
The marriage between spirit and substance. It is not by chance that the word religion has the same meaning, both comes from latim religare, that means relink.
In the same way, the sufism considers the human spirit as an emanation of the the divine, which try for reintegrating. At this point, we can say Yoga is religion by this sense that is a transmition of knowledge, the creation of a behavior code epthical and an spiritual practical.
Most of these yoga's knowledge runs to the opposite way of what the bible teaches..
"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, Ephesians 3:20
