One of the reasons why I liked the yamas and the niyamas is because they are not offered as absolutes, more like guidelines that if you follow them will free you up more.

I am with you. Are culture took up the morality of the Bible. It has made many people very mentally sick. It is up to a group of people like us to reshape the views of a society so it reflects spiritual values rather than values of the herd and conformity to ignorance. The contradictions contained in the Bible and the interpretations are so bad that I believe our country would have been much better off to have followed the other teachings from the east that explicitly endorsed meditation. I can think of no spiritual training and influence worst then Christianity and the Bible.
