hmm i don't think so, maybe , I know a lot of religious people who likes football, may be the stars become Deities for some people cause they don't have religious knowledge and don't have any ideology. Some times ago I heard the lecture of one scholar, he told about that every man need some idol to venerate and if man doesn't practice any religion he begins to search idoles everywhere
It is becoming like a religion. The passion for the game is phenomenal.
I clrealy remember one Manchester United game where the fans held this huge, long, red banner proclaiming "MUFC - THE RELIGION".
That says it all I think.
i agree with u that football is really being worshiped just like anyother religion I think this is because of the media basicallyy because almost every sports channel 50% shows are on foot ball and also because there are lots of new video games on football which comes into the market after every 15 days or in a month.people are wearing expensive shirts of their favourite team and player.
wasalam
i agree that it is being seen as religion and people are worshipping the players as if they are god. the media have to much power and are influenicing the younger generation alot buy bringing all this merchandise.
