How religion influences how a culture develops

Religion inlfuences how a culture develops by setting rules or laws. The United States of America sets rules or laws by influences of religion. The United States of America sets laws from the religion of Christianity. Christianity influences the culture of America and impacts the way Americans live their lives. Even American money states "In god we trust". This influenced the American culture by developing a balanced culture. In some very strict countries if you dont believe in their religion you get tortured and killed. This influences the culture by everyone being forced to be under one religion, which makes a very controlled and limited culture. Basically religion influences how a culture develops by setting balance by a country or culture being mostly one religion, this makes culture more balanced and controlled on beliefs and understandings.

Latin America Sports

   Latin America has a variety of sports including soccer, baseball, basketball, and boxing. In fact, a lot of famous athletes from Latin America are idolized by sport fans all over the world for there athletic abilities. This includes Roberto Clemente, Sammy Sosa, Pele, Ronaldinho, and Oscar De La Hoya. Latin Americans are huge into sports.
   I really like this about Latin America because i feel sports is a great way to connect with other countries. I also really like that Latin America is really big into more than one sport, and are diverse when it comes to sports. Latin America would be a great place to be if you're a really big sports fan, especially a soccer fan.
