This work examines the meaning of the Olympic Games in modern society and how they depend on and have consequences for modern religion. The author covers such topics as ""the religious origins of organised sport"" and ""athletic pleasures of the flesh"".
Baker opens by musing on the idea of Christ turning up unexpectedly at any time after his own lifetime, and the body of work this idea has spawned. He examines the meaning of the Olympic Games in modern society and how they depend on and have consequences for modern religion.
