ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. It demonstrates that sports and religion in American culture are not really in conflict, despite the still-held belief that one has little to do with the other or that one has gained cultural supremacy over the other. The book shows that the interplay between religion and sports can be duplicated in a relationship between other cultural manifestations. In fact, post secularism opens up all kinds of new horizons for the study of religion and as such, several insights follow from own inquiry into religion and sports and its admitted limitations. In the twenty-first century, as post secularists suggest, religion remains a crucial social enterprise that encourages people to transcend their daily existence as a way to reflect on their personal commitments and conviction, their behavior towards others, and their place in the universe.
