Someone commented that meditation was among the things you should avoid. What religion teaches this? And WHY? I don't mean to offend anyone but that boggles my mind.

That was me. I was raised a Christian. Meditation is an eastern idea inconsistent with western religions. There is no 'emptying the mind' and saying 'gumbum gumbum gumbum' when praying to God. That's what they were driving at, I suppose.
