| Sumario: | The author challenges the incompleteness of the ethical arguments against different forms of cheating and contributes a Christian voice to the discussion. He initiates a theological conversation that is both scholarly and accessible, arguing that a distinctively Christian understanding of sport will have far-reaching implications for how we treat ethical issues like doping. The values, beliefs, and practices within the Christian tradition show an alternative that prioritises humility and friendship, grace and gratitude, over the "win at all costs" mentality that drives athletes to extremes for a competitive advantage.-- |
