    They should just call it stretch class, use whatever works best and let that be the end of it.

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."

    As much as the yearly "war on christmas" is overblown, there are actualy a few nuts in western society who want it banned from schools/public places because they see it as an endorsement of a particular religion. I think they’re silly.
    Likewise, I think that the people who insist that every possible reference to Hindu religion, no matter how small or irrelevant, should be removed from Yogha classes are silly. And I imagine that these people are generally the same folks who tend to rave on about the “war on Christmas”, a tad hypocritical if you ask me.

    lol. Now, if the children were armed they'd be able to defend themselves against the dope-smoking, hippy yoga-pushers... Problem solved.

    So apparently it's not just in West that people find compulsory Yoga in school objectionable. Even people over here are squabbling about it, and I'm at a loss for words.
