So?

That's all unwell and bad, but our culture, hell, our species, has been idolizing sports players as far back as Greece and Rome, and probably even farther back than then.

It's an aspect of society I wish wasn't there, as it provides an excuse for the unintelligent to reign dominant over those quite frankly more deserving of fame than them, ie people who use their brains.

I digress though, what I intended to say was that the human race is geared towards deifying the physically fit
This directly contradicts your "humans can transcend their instincts" argument.

It doesn't seem like you're even disagreeing with me, so I don't see your point.
