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

Gambling is certified as sin, because most people who get involved here is became greedy but not all of them.
Because there are some gamblers played for fun only.

Greediness is the one that leads us to sin but gambling itself is not a sin. It really depends on the output of the gambling activity. There are some that are becoming addicted and there are that are just normal gamblers.

I completely agree, you cannot be greedy in gambling because it will only lead to loses, just be always cautious of your decision because you do not have the advantage in this game. Those who are greedy may experience big loses because no matter how lucky they are and bag some good money but they will not be contented and just stop.

i think it is depending on your religion, as we can see that gambling is illegal and forbidden in ISLAM and if a person is not following the rules of his religion then he is surely commuting a sin and he will be charge for that but still there are some religion where gambling is not an illegal activity and people are free to play gambling without any restriction. but still even there gambling is not allowed for kids and those people whose age is less that 18 year of age.

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.

Although I don't think that gambling is a sin I disagree with the other part of your statement. In many cases gambling affects close relatives of the addicted person, especially when a gambler has wife and kids since he loses the money he can spend on them to gambling.

when something could harm for other that is called sin, in gambling someone can be benefited and someone can be looser. it is totally depends on luck. i think we should more study about this in the light of religion.
so far i think gambling is sin.

Gambling is not a sin. It can become a sin however, when you lose yourself in the gambling and start to neglect yourself or the people around you.

Gambling, as long as you can control it, is just fun. The chance of winning big is what attracts everybody and makes them come back.

I agree that when people play gamble that isn't a sin. Gambling will be a sin if the person who are playing is very addicted and end up betting all of his things and when he lose then blame the people or person besides him when he is playing. Negative attitude is created when you become addicted to gambling and the people around you are affected.

I think it is a big NO because gambling isn't mention in the bible. People use gambling to earn incomes. And many gambling are legal in a specific country. There are only times that people are so addicted to gambling that make them to bet all of they have and end up losing and falling. I think in that situation the gambling will be a sin. If you become addicted and bet all of your things like house, cars or even lots.

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.

Gambling is not the root of all evils, if there was a capital sin committed from someone there it was you and it was the sin of greed, you tripled your money you should have been happy and call it a day, but no, you decided to keep playing and lost it all.

It is sin for me, but not for you. According to everyone, the situation is different. For a person who is generally religious, gambling is a sin, for example I can say sin according to my desire.

For example, there are some religious days in our country and it is a great sin to play gambling these days. He also encourages a bigger sin if he plays in regular casinos.

Were in the same page mate, I also do believed that gambling is a sin too. it maybe true that the gambling is not in the Bible but there is also no gambling place in heaven only here on earth we had it. But I respect the opinion of others here if gambling for them was not a sin.

If you believe gambling is a sin, why are you promoting bitvest.io? Just asking it seems like a conflict. That is a good point though is it a sin to make money off of gambling? (Investing in the house.)

The problem with all of these things is where do you draw the line.

Yes I do believe that gambling is a sin and I think one while promoting bitvest.io etc. is basically doing a social service by telling it on the forum to the people that it is a sin and if you don’t realize it before it is then too late to understand that from just a fun surfing they have become a gambling addict. So, let them think about it and realize to draw a line between a fun surfing and addiction. Indeed is a great job to do…

There are several churches in my area that have a Bingo night....some have a casino night too. I've also seen church raffles.....etc. The Judea Christian Bible mentions the Israelites "casting lots." So, I don't know if gambling is a "sin" but I do know that there are quite a few churches that have no problem participating in the activity.

Exactly! I have seen few Temples around Louisiana having these worshipers playing card games with money on the table during some festive season.I doubt its a sin then.Its all in our heads at the end of the day.

win true all that relates to the game wearing any form of money bets every game that gambling is a sin is very much less with until we have forgotten the time so that it will be detrimental to our lives, but for me it's just a fun game only.

Not even sure where they got this idea it was a sin. How was this a sin? People aren't committing any kind of sin the 10 commandments stated. I don't see there "do not gamble." People just make up the crazies sayings in their lives just to explain something or prevent people from doing something.

I don’t agree what you have said. There are lots of reasons for gambling to prove it that it is a sin.

You can only let the people know about it that in which state it is harming yourself, others and the society. It does not mean to stop someone forcefully but to deal with them logically. If they understand your opinion and your point of view then it will be very good.

Where did you read that it is a sin, when you say certified it is like there is an official statement saying in general that it is a sin. I doubt if it is applicable to all if there's any, in our country some illegal gambling are prohibited but I don't believe it is prohibited because it's a sin.

Moreover, please do consider that there are so called legal gambling which is supported by the government or operated by the government like a lottery in our country.

Gambling becomes a sin only when it takes over you. If you bet a buck and lose it. It isnt a big deal. But when you bet your house, its a sin as you are snatching a roof from yourself and your family. If you lose something without which you and your family cant live. It becomes a sin. Moreover, when gambling empowers you. Then its a sin. If you can't walk past a casino or a poker table without a round, if you cant pass a lottery stand without buying in, then it's controlling you more than you control it - and therefore it's a sin.

People does not only gamble to win money or feed their greed. This depends on the purpose why people is going to Casino. If a person purpose is to have entertainment and enjoy himself then where is the sin on that. If you are using your own money from legit earnings, why would anyone consider it as a sin?

Yes, it depends upon the nature of the games you play and if it is just an entertainment and just want to enjoy your time then I guess it’s okay but if you are doing something in which someone is being exploited then it is not right. Exploitation in any case is a sin. Even if, people are exploited socially or by any other means but it is a sin.

However the bible clearly condemns the love of money.

Religions were created just to ensure people are leading a happy life. Hence we need not look for exact definition of what religion is saying about gambling. If you are religious, it would be better stop gambling as for no reason gambling could be justified for a anyone's happy life.

Well, not all people have the same religion as him, so to others it might not be a sin.
He only thinks his rules apply only to him

Well if we are rely on bible we will see that gambling is one of the hated of jesus. So for me its a sin. no matter what if its involve with money its gambling that we can say it is a sin..
We know we are promoting almost gambling casino but we are just a promoter or we are just renting our signature just to make few bucks but we are not gamble anything ..

I'm not sure where this is in the bible. However the bible clearly condemns the love of money. So maybe that is what you are referring too?

If you fully understand what gambling is you will never blame your loses to gambling and you will never call it the root of all evils. Just be matured enough to accept whatever the outcome because we know we have to take risk to play in a game like gambling. Only when you are greedy you will lose more money because being greedy will never give you a satisfaction and you always push until nothing will be left in the end.
