In this eBook the main points is; religion and sport are different disciplines. It is wrong to discuss whether a sport is suitable for a religion. What should be discussed is in the advantages and disadvantages it brings to individuals.
We can find common targets between sport and religion by looking their purposes and the advantages they ensure. In both disciplines, there are vast majorities of communities and individual to be interests. People having the same religion, can have different languages, colours and races, they may come from different communities but they can admire the same sport.
Such disciplines which affect billions of people can cooperate without interfering each other. The cooperation to be done can contribute peace and quiet for the communities and for the world. To tell the truth, sport can probably ensure the cooperation which religion couldn’t do throughout the history. However, religion and moral qualities are needed to avoid violence and fanaticism in sports.
While sport teaches a person how to control his body, beliefs teach how to control the spirit. A human is a whole which is formed by the spirit and the body. If you deny one half, it gives you unhappiness and discontent.
