Global Religion brings humor smack back into the center of sport. The sport &#39;pie,&#39; that goes back way beyond Homer, has many ingredients. <br><br>Fun, recreation, competition, exercise, teamwork, entertainment &mdash; all play various roles in various games. Recently work, money and politics have taken some sports by storm. In They Also Serve…Tennis &mdash; A Global Religion, the &#39;good laugh and quiet smile&#39; of Wild…takes a step further. By bringing &quot;clerical&quot; figures &mdash; Cardinals, Popes, Imams, Rabbis and Abbesses &mdash; onto the tennis court, their &quot;decorum&quot; is shattered and a low key chuckle emerges. Humor and Tennis are both cohesive &mdash; they bring people together as in the original Olympics for peaceful, enjoyable, channeled competition. Winning no longer entails annihilating the opponent but relishing the challenge, fostering prowess, dexterity and achievement.<br><br>Perhaps sportsmanship can trickle down into world religion.
