Many people have grown weary of athletes proclaiming their Christian faith in ways that seem to trivialize religion or offend others. While banning religion from sports is not possible, more thought needs to be given to establishing a more appropriate expression of faith. However, politics, particularly of the Christian Right, have significantly influenced the relationship between religion and sports without consideration of other faiths. There are also concerns about the commercialization of college sports compromising educational values and whether attributing athletic success solely to God is theological overreach.
