TELEVANGELIST PAT ROBERTSON WARNS AGAINST YOGA, ZUMBA

Leave a comment

VIRGINIA BEACH, Virginia (The Adobo Chronicles) – Televangelist Pat Robertson today warned Christians against practicing or participating in Yoga and Zumba, saying that these popular fitness activities promote the worship of Hindu and Arabic ‘deities.’

Responding to a viewer question on the TV show ‘The 700 Club’ whether she should allow her daughter to continue practicing Yoga, Robertson said that while there is nothing wrong with stretching or exercising, Yoga participants are unknowingly praying to Hindu deities, when they utter what may seem to many as gibberish (Uhmmmm; Kali, Kali, Kali).

After the show aired, Robertson was questioned by Christian reporters on what he thought about another popular fitness activity, Zumba.  Robertson said, “Just like Yoga, Zumba promotes non-Christian deity worship. People might think they are just dancing to some Latin music, but they are actually dancing to appease some Arabic deity.”

(The Adobo Chronicles thinks Robertson mistook ‘Arabic’ for ‘Aerobic’)

So, Christian fitness enthusiasts should stick to ‘jumping jacks.’ Unless Robertson also thinks it is a form of worship for some other deity, like Jack in the Box.

ATLANTA, Georgia (The Adobo Chronicles) – CNN’s chief medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta puts medical marijuana under the microscope again with “Weed 3: The Marijuana Revolution” at 9 p.m. ET, Sunday on CNN.

The CNN Original Series  will explore the business of legal, recreational cannabis in Breckenridge, Colorado.

Among Gupta’s guests will be no less than President Obama who, sources say, will  announce his full support for  a nationwide legalization of weed for medical and recreational purposes.

Before the segment with the president ends, the sources say that both Gupta and Obama will smoke marijuana  — live on air — to prove that weed is no more harmful than legal alcohol.

In recent years, Gupta was rumored to be one of Obama’s choices for Surgeon General but that the CNN anchor chose to stay in television.

The entire nation will be tuning in to CNN this Sunday. It may be the show that will break all Nielsen rating records.

Inspired by those very same words, Philippines President NoyNoy Aquino — a known chain smoker — officially changed his brand of cigarettes to Champion. Not just any Champion, but Mild Menthol Champion, imported from the United States.

An Aquino spokesperson said that by changing his brand and riding on the popularity of Hillary, the president expects a significant improvement in his approval ratings which have been on the decline lately.

Puff away, Mr. President!
