Another fantastic and excellently crafted piece, delving into one of today's most relevant topics. Sports play a crucial role in promoting physical, mental, and spiritual well-being and positive social and cultural change. In a way, skilled athletes, like artists, help advocate for love, peace, human rights, and global equality. However, it's critical to mention that certain sports, such as boxing, involve harming one another only for entertainment rather than survival or self-defense, which are considered unjustifiable acts of violence, regardless of the pursuit of glory or gold medals.

Unfortunately, we honor and praise our athletes not for their moral integrity and courage but for how many medals and victories they brought to our favorite teams; for example, some famous players are egoistic, racist, and supportive of genocides against innocent children; they are enslaved by their greed and shamefully lacking passion and loyalty to their teams or nations, they are willing to sell themselves for whoever pays more, similar to the slavery during ancient time.

Likewise, Zeus, the ancient Greek, and Roman Olympian God was praised and worshiped not for his wisdom or moral virtues but because of the fear instilled by his evil power, much like Satan. Zeus's actions were driven by darkness, paranoia, and fear of losing his dominion over humans. To remain in power, he did everything to reduce the population, including orchestrating natural disasters, spreading diseases and hunger, and instigating civil wars. This seems relevant and inspiring for the current narcissistic leaders in the modern world.

Apollo is one of the Olympian deities and the patron of homosexuality; due to his compulsive obsessions, he couldn't endure rejection. And despite his extraordinary talents, he was a women rapist, similar to his father, Zeus. When the ancient Greeks realized their darkness and psychosis, they developed “Stoicism” to manage their inner turmoil and maintain self-discipline, aiming to quell fears and aggression. Unfortunately, the contemporary misinterpretation of this philosophy has resulted in widespread emotional numbness, detachment, and the acceptance of fatalism. Instead of inspiring hope and dreaming for a brighter future, we have confined ourselves to our comfort zones by repeatedly reciting and attaching mantras such as “Not to spoil what you have by desiring what you don’t have”.

Women in ancient Greece had no rights to participate in politics or sports. Today, human rights allow any woman to participate in boxing and combat games in the Olympics, and ironically, by the name of gender equality and human rights, any man inhumanly can beat a woman as the world watches. They are not only legalizing violence against women but making it an enjoyable entertainment tool for our "psychopaths." Due to our delusional disorder, fake women's rights, and our urge to be ruled by different gender, race, and color, we are supporting an oppressive system that funds bombing, torture, rape, stillbirth, abortion, and displacement for other women who belong to different race, low-income country or religion.

Their deceptive notion of equality hypnotized us and captivated our attention while overlooking the millions of women refugees who were displaced from their homes and countries between 2011 and 2024 due to conflicts perpetuated or supported by the same authoritarian system. These women living in camps face ongoing threats of femicide, trafficking, gender-based violence, forced abortion, and suicide. Disgracefully, in ancient Greek mythology and during darker periods of history, women were often more dignified than they are today. We no longer adhere to their false democratic values and ideology. We no longer need their permission to speak . Instead, we should focus on reclaiming our dignity, as the King once stated: "One's dignity may be assaulted, vandalized, cruelly mocked, but it can never be taken away unless it is surrendered."

I sincerely appreciate your willingness to offer your wisdom and knowledge on such a vital and potent topic.
