One of the reason why some people think that money came from gambling is a dirty money because you don't have to work hard for it where in other situation in earning money is you have to work for it that is why they think money came from gambling is a dirty money.
no its not . gambling only gains a negative reputation from the public so they think any related to it are also bad but gambling is not actually like that if you know how to use it properly .
it can give you benefits like enjoyment and profit . gambling money is dirty money only if the money used on gambling is came from robery and other crime acts but if it came from your own hardwork , then there is no problem with that .

This to me is a traditional view which remains persistent until the very day.
My mother considered gambling as playing with money. She sternly reminded us not to gamble. When I was in college, there was a hot debate within the church whether or not to accept donations coming from dirty sources such as gambling. And in Islam, gambling (maysir) is haram (forbidden). [1]
I have a friend whose father would not serve the family food bought using gambling money.
And just a few years ago, our Education Secretary shunned billions of state-funds because they are coming from gambling. She didn't think it moral and proper to buy books and even build classrooms using the dirty gambling money. [2]
What are your thoughts on these? Do you agree with it, or you consider these as old-fashioned views?

This is absolutely old-fashioned.
Gambling was something illegal in the past and this is the reason why it is considered Dirty money.
Now the gambling industry has absolutely evolved and it is a healthy industry which makes a lot of people make a living from that.
If you see see from religious side then it is indeed dirty as I believe most religions does say that gambling as a sin. To be honest I can fully agree about any rules/opinion that says gambling is a sin or even a crime. I can fully see where is the wrong part of gambling as people do it with their own money, risking their own money, losing their own money which means it does not affect any other's life in general.
Personally, I don't see gambling money as dirty. I guess the world as evolved already from this old traditional point of view. Unless you are very religious here, I'm sure everyone doesn't consider it tainted or could be the cause of you committing sins. Gambling today is a business, online or offline so many have sway around that traditional belief already.
I respect every religion and what they believe as long as it doesn't hurt others. I think it's still widely believed that the money which came from gambling has stains, at least for those people that are not open with innovation and can't accept the fact that we're emerging and the world is changing a lot and gambling is part of it.
Gambling is a big market and if they decide not to accept donations from casino's or any gambling institution it's their choice but at least they should commend their generosity of helping them.

If you are looking at it from a religious point of view, sure, it is morally wrong and you are not allowed to gamble.
The gambling industry is huge and the amount of taxes that it brings in can be used to improve any infrastructure needed. I don't see why a government would be against gambling and spending the taxes that stem from it.

I don't agree, but maybe that's because I'm not religious.
Personally, I don't think that it's morally wrong to gamble, just because it's baked into our society and gambling in and of itself isn't inherently bad.
It's something that's done for fun and all around the world in different shapes and forms, most people can enjoy it without getting themselves into trouble.
Sure, you could make the argument that you're getting money (if you win), which you haven't worked for, but there are so many ways that people get something without having put in any effort.
That doesn't mean it's wrong...
I'm completely against using religion as a way to tell people what they can or cannot do.

Gambling is a worldwide industry, lots of people enjoy gambling. I disagree, I don’t see it as any kind of taboo or terrible thing. People lose money gambling, sure. People win lots too, I don’t feel sorry for people who become addicted to gambling, these kind of people are weak. You are the master of your own life.
