If you belive god then it is wrong, very wrong, but if no, then it is okay i guess, nothing bad if you don't loose your family

I think you little unnecessarily mix here gambling as fun and religion. In fact, I never heard that Church is criticizing gambling. Gambling addiction is a disaster, (I guess that's what you mean) God and Church should help such people.

if you are playing for making profit so it is wrong but if you play for fun it is not you are just playing Wink

Playing for profit is wrong because this is the easiest way to be addicted, but anyway it have nothing to do with religion. Of course gambling always should be taken only as fun and way to spend free time. Personally I don't like to go to cinema but i like play poker. Does this mean that I would be condemned by God? Everyone have right to like different things.

its not wrong in any ways, if people want to gamble, they can do that and its theirs decision

Yes probably, but I think that gambling is not wrong and who is to blame are those who would be tempted towards the sweet promise of gambling. In gambling have a very sweet seductive promise many people until they finally suffered a defeat so great and eventually they become crazy because of losing all his money. You may conduct gambling, But if you do not want to lose a lot of money, you should be able to control yourself and your mind

If you are gambling only to earn money and have no other source of earning, this is definitely wrong. Gambling is a game and not a job which can earn you money and hence better do not treat it as earning method.
The moment you start gambling for your living, that means you need to get a job asap as the game can affect you emotionally.
This may lead to destruction of your entire life like you will not able to concentrate to a job as well as making profits also will be impossible for emotionally imbalanced gamblers.

It's wrong if you spend too much money for it, just be smart, it's risky, and don't even try sports gambling, i heard it's very risky

sports gambling is very risky and shouldn't try? where did u hear that from? the 1st recomment from what i have read now become the 1st not recomment in your advice.

Yeah sports betting i actually probably one of the least risky forms of gambling since there is such a delay between bet and result on average.  Punters have time time rethink their situation unlike faster forms of gambling.
That's true. There have been many instances when I have changed my bets after reading news alerts and predictions made by experts and they have mostly been right. Yes slower gambling are better way to prove gambling is not always wrong.

Gambling is not wrong if you gamble in limits, after all its your money and your decision to gamble or not, but if gambling becomes an addiction it is totally wrong.

Some people start it for fun but slowly they will addicted these games and end up losing money in gambling so if any one think they can't control there emotions than it is better avoid and find some other entertainment activities. If you can control yourself than gambling is not wrong.
yeah i agree when the emotions control the player it will lead him to the losing way

Gambling can be for monetary or entertainment purposes.  There are many forms of gambling.  The stock market, lottery tickets, and casinos are all legal forms of gambling.  

Normaly when gambling for monetary purposes is when it can become wrong imo as that is when it can become easily addictive. Stock market is a smarter gambling an more investing and is not wrong unless you lose your families wealth.

IMHO, Stocks are the worst thing in gambling as you don't know when will it dump, and stocks aren't BTC which will recover some day...
So, losing either your money or your families' doesn't matter at all, but losing is not an option when you are in something for profits...

So you're saying because you don't know when it will dump makes it worse than gambling in a casino and makes it bad and wrong?
I've heard it all now, because it is so easy to know when you're going to win and lose against the casino house isn't it.

Never said they was it was a simple statement that you have got excited about. So now we're here, BTC is sure to recover one day is it and stocks are not. Ok I get ya  Grin

I will attempt at dechiphering this; losing your families money is wrong so that does matter a lot. Losing your own money is your own business so that is not wrong. Losing is an option to say any different is stupid.

That is what makes gambling wrong but that is also why many members on this forum gamble.
We should all know that in the long run there is only one winner and that is the casino, treating it as an income is crazy and will soon have a rude awakening with that mentality.

Is u cannot afford your losing.. this is wrong.. No money, no friend, no family... nothings Smiley

What you mean ..??. Faithful people who gamble have thought to win, so it's reasonable if those who gamble do not want to lose. And if they don't want to lose, they have to understand how to play in gambling and make a good strategy and I am sure if they make a good strategy certainly luck was always there for them

There is no way or strategy that can make a person win with assurance in gambling. If people cannot afford to lose and play for a definite win, gambling is not a game for them as they won't just take their loss gracefully and will continue gambling till they lose all their earnings. It's better for those to invest in something fruitful then as gambling is nothing but winning money for NOTHING while working hard for a profit is worth more.
