The 2012 Summer Olympic Games, officially known as the Games of the XXX Olympiad and informally as London 2012, will be held in London from July 15 through August 12. This makes London the first city to host the Games three times - the previous occasions being in 1908 and 1948. The Olympic Games have pagan origins, the torch relay was first used for the 1936 Summer Olympic Games in Nazi Berlin

Athletes from 204 National Olympic Committees will be participating.

Conservapedia predicts and analyzes underachievement by nations, or particular sports fielded by a nation, due to:

Nations that have implemented same-sex marriage

Underachievement by nations allowing same sex marriage will be particularly evident.[1]

Nations that are increasingly atheistic

Underachievement by atheistic nations will be particularly evident in the team sports, where spiritual motivation is non-existent. Expect the atheistic nations to underachieve most notably in soccer, where teamwork is paramount.

Sports ravaged by feminist Title IX quotas in the U.S.

Winners

Athlete Achievement Religion, or Atheist?


Joke sports

These are sports that allow underachieving nations to pad their medal totals, while the common man is surprised that they would even be considered an Olympic sport at all (compare with Worst College Majors):

  • beach volleyball
  • synchronized swimming
