Best Answer

yes and no.

yes because look at all the athletes that have got caught up in competition and have taken steroids and other harmful drugs.

no because it's been tradition for many years. also no because most of you are probably thinking of terrorists but why stop something because something bad could happen. what if you walk to work/school, you could get hit by a car, would you quit your job/ stop going to school... no!

What date was the Olympics abolished?

As far as I know, the modern Olympics have never been abolished. There have been times when teams or countries boycotted, but the Olympics still continues on, year after year, as they have since 1896. But perhaps you are referring to ancient times: during the Roman Empire, Emperor Theodosius I (who was a Christian) decided the Olympics were too pagan, and he ordered them to be banned. That occurred in the year 393, and the ban lasted for more than 1500 years.


Why did the Roman Olympics end?

The ancient Olympics were dedicated to the pagan gods. As the Roman empire had Christianity imposed on it, such institutions were abolished. The emperor Theodosius ended the games in 393 AD. He also closed pagan temples and destroyed most to the ancient Greek sculptures, as they were almost all images of gods and goddesses -- i.e., pagan idols.
