As for me, I don't consider it a sin because I don't hurt other people when I play gambling. It only becomes a sin if you stole money from others to continue with your gambling habits. And yeah, I don't think it has mentioned in the Bible that is it a sin to gamble. But if you are too religious or it is against your own religion, then stay away from it.

No its not a sin to gamble but make it sure that you know how to control yourself in spending your money in gambling because you might lose everything and go broke. Just like what happened here in our country a broke man attacked a well known Casino put in on fire and fired a gun.

And when you are broke you will think a lot of things to recover and gamble again. That is what happening to other gamblers, they mostly think of criminal acts when they are bankrupt because of gambling. It is making them commit a sin and it really depends on the gambler on how they can take the situation.

Yes, agreed, gambling is sin for those who think it is sin and also gambling is not a sin for those who think it is not. It is same like this, mostly gamblers couldn't earn from it and mostly gamblers are earning from it because they have luck, and they have many times win in gambling. Because they have a quality to control their-self on the right time and save them-self for greediness.
But in my thinking, gambling is normal way where we could enjoy to play games.

It is a sin no matter what you see it. Some people are ignorant with this however there is no doubt that it is a sin, If you have a religion then it is a sin. Every religion forbid you to gamble and everything that is forbidden is considered as sin, it is as simple as that. Dont overthink this stuff, you guys lie most of the day so it is just another sin that you are committing
As I've said. Gambling isnt a good activity. And if your religion forbids you to gamble, no matter how you gamble, gambling is a sin for them. I'm sure they already know that, so they should be ready to bear the risks.
Lol I can not understand what risks can carry gambling did, and sins I have no idea at all. But to be honest, I think that gambling breeds a lot of negative consequences and emotions in a person. Of course, there are people who cope with their emotions and can participate in gambling very fruitfully. But you need to take into account there is something that not every person is subject to gambling. Only morally psychological point of view, this is not available to all.

Gambling is a sin or not dependent on their beliefs. If for example your religion forbids gambling, then gambling is a sin to you. No matter what your reason for gambling, whether for fun or for profit, gambling is still a sin for you. And if for example your religion does not forbid  people to gamble, then gambling is not a sin to you. But gambling can also be a sin, depending on how you gamble.
Everything in this world is just based on your view, nothing is inherited along with anything. So, it is obvious that some people are considering gambling as sin and some other people are not treating gambling as sin. But by considering how cruelly gambling transform one gambler's life then I too think there will be nothing wrong to consider gambling as a sin.
I think we should follow our beliefs, not how we think of them. What I mean before was like that. If our belief threatens gambling but we still gamble just because we do not take it as a sin, it means we do not believe in our beliefs, is that good?
I think thats not a big reason for us to stop gambling some people believe on it that it was a sin to gamble but they don't mind it. Bad sin are the one that makes most of us a pleasure right . That was only my opinion. I also play even if it is a sin or not.
We do what we believe and we are responsible for our actions because we are matured enough to make a decision.
Gambling could be a sin for others but to those who do not believe it is, they have the right to enjoy spending their money.

I think it's not about spending money but more about the greed. If you gamble to make a lot of money without much of efforts then your way of thinking is wrong and this is called a sin in some religions. But if gambling for you is just an entertaining thing like riding a roller coaster or fishing then it's not a sin imo.

Is gambling OK? Don't bet it! There's not an easy or instantly obvious proof text answer to that question.
Yes it is and it's not a sin. Gambling is a legal matters and it's not actually bad fro people. The only bad thing is that, people don't control themseleves properly thus they are more likely to lose. Gambling has a clear concept that gives an opportunity for fortunate people to multiply his money. However, each one must understand that every thing in gambling is risk.

I have a different take on it.  I think gambling is sinful if it unfairly takes advantage of others, if it hurts those around us we're obligated to protect, or if causes us to do immoral things to satisfy our desires.  Sometimes gambling just "feels" wrong, like taking a wager on a bet we know we can't lose against a person who is mentally challenged and can't afford the loss.  A grown man shouldn't arm wrestle his 6 years old niece for her lunch money....that would probably be wrong in the site of our creator, right?

Not only on fortunate people but it do also gives an opportunity for non-fortunate too if they are lucky enough the advantage on having bigger bankroll is that you can easily adjust the bets you do like which would somehow gives an advantage compared to those people who do have limited funds. Yes,its not really a sin to gambler as long we do know to control ourselves on playing it..

When you are betting with more money, you are risking more than average person as well. Some people just keep on remembering the reward that they are going to get but forget that they are going to lose money more . Thats what makes gamblers a fool when they keep on gambling blindly without considering the risk

Not a sin for someone with - 8 negative trusts from the DT. I mean what could be worst than scamming people or promoting it? As far as gambling is concerned, no God ever said don't gamble. Neither Bible mentions it. That should be convincing.
Yes thats true that God ever said don't gamble or it is never mention in the bible but the thing is God said don't love money because money is the root of all evil. If you gamble because you are greed of money and all you had know is to earn and earn and earn a lot of money then thats the case that you really love money. Gambling is just for fun and for entertainment but if you already abvious it, thats we called sin. Uncontented is a sin.

Well, that's just my opinion, indeed what they do is up to each. We can not force what others have to do. All we can do is remind each other. The risks are borne by each. Sin or not becomes the affair of each person.
Agreed, it's upon the person. For someone it might be a sin and few Keep this out of the list, so purely it's upon one's own interest and when it comes to gambling the losing is high and just because of this it has got an overall bad image from the people who have never used it. This makes them think it a sin.
