<a href="http://www.irr.org/yoga&christianity.html" target="_blank">http://www.irr.org/yoga&christianity.html</a> may be of interest. That website is the Institute for Religious Research, where "research" means "finding support for the truth of Christianity". Rather similar to their scientific brethren, the Institute for Creation Research.
