Is gambling OK? Don't bet it! There's not an easy or instantly obvious proof text answer to that question.

Gambling is not a sin it did not even included in the ten commandments but if you lose your work, friends, family and god due to gambling that would be a sin therefore you should able to control your gambling habit that it should be limited for fun and entertainment alone because beyond of that it will be more than a sin but a chaos that you will lost everything that you loved and cared for.

I have never collapsed that in our culture gambling was a sin. Perhaps other nations think so, but we play all who want to get pleasure or profit from it.

Well if you think about it, it depends on a person if gambling will have a negative effect in his life. The decision is always with us. And sins are defined by either religion or culture, so a man's decision would determine if gambling would be a sin or not.

Maybe in some religions gambling is a sin, but i didn't like this idea. Maybe it's forbidden in some religions because it's an easy money. Personally, i play gambling just for fun, I didn't consider it like a source for profit. I like so much gambling, i feel so good to make bets and enjoy with all my live games.

In my opinion gambling is not a sin because there is nothing wrong unless you deal with it without a limitation. For me you are not stepping on other people’s lives when you gamble sometimes it is just someone’s way to spend their idle time with. Also we should take note that life is a gamble where we need to risk, we need to learn and there is winning and lossing.

when one person become addiction, he can do whatever he can to have money even for stealing other peoples money just to gambling. but if about sin or not, i think its related with the religion for each person because some people will say is not a sin but the other said it is a sin. but my opinion here is if you are good to play gambling for searching income to support the family and you can saw your family eat from the money from the gambling then you can continue playing gambling. but if its not, i think you better to search another jobs if you want to support your family.
I think it is good to rely on gambling to support our family, we must really need to have a good and stable job to give our family good support especially the food that they eat. Don't rely on gambling. If you are a responsible person search for a stable job.

I agree that being greedy is even more considered as a sin. Just like the bible tells us, for the love of money is the root of all evil. And that leads us to sin, gambling is just there to give entertainment just like the other things when used it too much and we dedicated too much time to it then that leads us to sin. So being a greedy person is the real sin and not gambling alone.

Gambling is not a sin but too much of it is. You cannot just directly say that gambling is a sin because it is a form of entertainment in order for the people to enjoy. It only becomes a sin when the people who gambles too much ends up forgetting his responsibilities and becoming greedy and later on becomes addicted to it.

It is a form of entertainment and many of us are treating it as a source of income. And that is the reason why everyone of us are starting to have a feeling of greediness in gambling and this leads us to gamble more often. If you have that feeling of greediness and you want to gamble non-stop be curious of that feeling. You may treat yourself as not committing a sin but in reality you are committing one.

Whether it remains a sin, if we do gambling with money that can be from gambling? And it goes on for long!And we never spend money from anywhere other than gambling? Is it still considered sinful? Because it can be called as income to support the family?

It's not a sin as long as you are not stealing others money. It only causes us to do sin when we are already addicted in gambling and we can't support our addiction in a way that even we want to gamble but we can't do it because we don't have money anymore. And what's coming to our mind? We want to commit such sin just to sustain our addiction.
yes as long as you don't commit a criminal act like stealing money to gamble. not many people can earn income from gambling because most of them will lose and end up with a gambling addiction that has a bad impact on him. this is the fact that many say gambling is a sin because most will end badly.
Yes, and that is because of addiction, that's why they make way just to gamble again, so they commit a criminal act to have money just to play gamble again, which is really bad. Gambling is not that bad the person who plays it that commit criminal act was the one who have a sin.

when one person become addiction, he can do whatever he can to have money even for stealing other peoples money just to gambling. but if about sin or not, i think its related with the religion for each person because some people will say is not a sin but the other said it is a sin. but my opinion here is if you are good to play gambling for searching income to support the family and you can saw your family eat from the money from the gambling then you can continue playing gambling. but if its not, i think you better to search another jobs if you want to support your family.

gambling is not a sin..it just become a bad thing because so many people become addicted to it many people forget what are the most needs to buy for the money because of gambling. it is better to save for your future than trying your luck in gambling because in gambling there is no assurance if you will always be lucky.

Its not a sin even you are a greeady person or not. It will become only a sin if you do the wrong things and gamble again to spend but not your money .. As long as you enjoy and you have no problem in money its not a sin.

I agree that being greedy is even more considered as a sin. Just like the bible tells us, for the love of money is the root of all evil. And that leads us to sin, gambling is just there to give entertainment just like the other things when used it too much and we dedicated too much time to it then that leads us to sin. So being a greedy person is the real sin and not gambling alone.
It is definitely one of the causes of disagreements and most people who are greedy won't care about people who they will run over or destroy and that leads to either madness or worse, killings. It's the persons fault also for making themselves addicted to it and only that person could get themselves healed.

Gambling is a sin if your religion sets gambling as a sin, gambling for fun or for making money will remain sin. Even if you ignore it, even if you do not consider it a sin, it remains a sin. If you already know the law, next is your choice to keep gambling or not because whatever you choose you will bear the consequences.

So is being gay, lending out money and the following,

Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material. Leviticus 19:19
Ye shall not round the corners of your heads. Leviticus 19:27

So it is a sin to wear clothes that has cotton and elastic materials. It is also a sin to shave your head bold.

Just to prove a point here that sins are really stupidly written things on paper.

Funny thing is, what you quoted is not even written on the scripture, I cannot find anything in the scripture that forbid people from gambling nor directly stating that gambling is a sin.  The great part here is that religious leader keep on saying gambling is a sin and yet when they need fund they hold a lottery, isn't lottery a gambling too?  Funny isn't it?

Well, I was taught from childhood, that the gambling game is a sin, so I believe it is a sin. But, all depends again on each other's stance, because the purpose of each person in playing gambling is different. Maybe that purpose makes gambling play not a sin.
Gambling can't be called sin. Even though gambling is kind of wrong but in general gambling doesn't do anything to others it just affects the person who is gambling and the owners who may earn or lose.

When we talk about sin, we must bring religion here. And do you think that the thing that sin is only a disservice to others? That's not true. Do not you think that things that can harm you but not harm others is not included with sin. Although gambling sometimes only makes misery to oneself, if religion establishes as a sin, it is a sin. The thing that sin is not only when we harm others.
You didn't get my point first of all why do we follow such a religion which stops us from doing what we like or doesn't allow us to live peacefully. If a person like gambling that's totally his wish. If he loses that is his fault. Even though he loses he likes gambling so religion is no one to take his happiness away from him. It will only be considered sin when it steals money from others to gamble or any other wrong way
We have different religion so we have different judgement on the topic whether gambling is a sin or not, as for me gambling is
never a sin, it's fun and although we can lose our money but the fun it brings would justify it.
It shouldn't be called a sin because of religious reasons as many religious consider gambling to be sin but thete will surely be a group of people who will still gamble even though it isn't allowed. It can be a sin for people based on their opinions and not at all gambling shouldn't be consider sin based on different religious reasons
Lets say that they are also a member of the said religion which do treat gambling as a sin but in reality some of them do make gamble which we cant really be avoided since gambling is just really a pure entertainment which we can able to stress out ourselves on playing it. Sin would only occur when you are already doing bad things because of too much addiction on it. We should not generally treat it as way other do treat it. We do have our own views when it comes to gambling and we should really respect each others views.
See again what you are saying is to satisfy yourself that you are not breaking any law or doing something that is considered sin if it's there in a particular religion you can't gamble so gambling for entertainment or profit doesn't make a difference you are still doing something which isn't allowed

I think it depends on your purpose on gambling if you are a greedy gambler then it is a sin,
But if it's just for your own entertainment and fun then I think it wouldn't be considered as a sin.
Its not a sin even you are a greeady person or not. It will become only a sin if you do the wrong things and gamble again to spend but not your money .. As long as you enjoy and you have no problem in money its not a sin.
