Default Taoism

I think if I was able to choose a belief system other than Christianity, I would have been into Taoism,,, its a very gentle caring belief system, and I must say when I was practising Tai Chi, my health and well being were in very good shape. I could even choose God as my deity ( well dunno bout that lol )

You don't want to go there canny, believe me it's another attempt of satan to keep us away from God. Satan has so many ticks up his sleeves andd is desperate to keep us away for God.

Satan is very adept at packaging lies with a pretty exterior and making it attractive enough to even draw immature Christians into it. They are still false religions. They look good, sound good, and attract unsuspecting people with false promises and lies.

Exactly.
It's like yoga in Church. It seems harmless, and the positions you do in yoga stretch many muscles and are good for your flexibility and such but...
Many of the positions you practice worship many deities, even the celestial bodies, like the Sun and the Moon. I quit doing yoga a while back, once I remembered it's TRUE origins.

Aw I cant go along with that,,,

Many of the positions you practise are just positions,, you cant worship in a position surely....

If it is beneficial, and you do not worship anything or anyone else,,,, how can you be worshipping by stretching...
