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.
I guess everyone here in this forum knows what you said. But there are still others had their own interpretation about that question, But for me I have no comment for what the bible says about in gambling, because gambling is one of the evil habit, but I'm not saying that the gambler is evil no it's not what I'm trying to say.

I'm really confused about your statement, You said that Gambling is a evil hobbit but gamblers are not evil. Everything that do a evil hobbit is also an evil. Not the evil creature but people that doing sin. Actually, Gambling are not mention to the bible but there are context that pointing to it. Here is some reference for clarification:https://bible.org/question/why-gambling-wrong.

But this thread was a case to case basis of an answer, For example, For religious people, Gambling is a sin because it is against their doctrine, While for gamblers, it is not a sin because this is just their hobby. We can't convince everybody based on our own opinion.

I believe everyone's belief in this matter. There's no right answer and there's no wrong answer as long as we can justify our opinions regarding this matter, it's true. And for me, I will say that it's both, it's a sin depending on the situation and it's not if you are a decent gambler and you know your limitation and what you do.

If gambling is not a sin, why do they call Las Vegas the Sin City? Considering Las Vegas holds the largest number of Casinos located in a single city.
I don't think so that why it is called sin city just because only on Casino city ,We don't know what is the true means behind those city (as i am not an american) Gambling is not truly a sin well if i know it will depends on your own explanation about gambling and sometimes in the manner of devotion in your own religion .But as far as i know it is not a sin at all if you don't do bad things when you gamble.
We have a choice to gamble or not, if you are a religious person and you believe it is a sin then it's not good to gamble anymore. As for me, I do not believe it's a sin because it depends on an individual on how he will handle himself when gambling, it's a risky game and that is true but with the right discipline you will be able to fully experience the meaning of gambling which is entertainment.
Some said gambling is a sin ,even i see gambling a sin i knew i am not committing a sin because i do it in the right way as you said with discipline ,So if i have an extra money sometimes i used to gamble and the thing is if i lose what i afford i stop playing. This includes our self control maybe yes it a sin but not all the time if you do it for good times. If money is our will it may become a sin ,'money is the root of all evil' but for fun its not bad thing if we don't be too much.

Well we could not really recognize gambling to be sin because its not bad to have fun unless a person steal money just for gambling, the sin is the crime commited which is stealing for money. Sinful act doesn't justify how deep is the sin commited by a person who is addicted by gambling, and through gambling addiction a person resulted to commiting sin.

I think it depends on whether the person's religion defines gambling as a sin. Some religions forbid their followers from gambling because it may lead to othee vile greedy actions. We just have to respect other people's beliefs when it comes to how they look at gambling

some religions forbid followers to gamble. And religion would not merely prohibit gambling, because gambling can lead to a lot of evils. Who are you to say it right, gambling can lead to greed, addiction, stealing just to gamble and others. Because of these things was some religions prohibit gambling, followers not to be greedy, stealing and others. But whatever it is, do it according their individual belief, if your religion forbids you should not do.

It is not that gambling is a sin, and calling a City, into a Sin City has its own reason, Sin City is an urban that caters to various vices, various means there are many things that is going out there and not just gambling is the reason why it is called the Sin City, the vices are, sex related services, including prostitution and strip clubs, Gambling, Drugs, and excessive organize crime and gangs activity. There are a lot of Sin Cities in the world and not all of them, includes gambling on it, that is why it is not really a sin to gamble. Excessive gambling activity is really not good to a ckuntry and it's  people.
I know, they call them Sin Cities because you can't just get out without doing a single sin – according to the Bible (the temptations, which those cities have, that almost no one can resist). So aren't all these vices considered sins? Or Gambling is excluded?

If you think it is a sin to gamble, so just quit gambling as a virtue.

That is it, what better advice can you give to this people who don`t like to gamble and think that gambling is a sin. But people like to stick nose in other people's business, here that is more obvious then in real life, hidden behind all this nicknames, people are free to wrote and reveal things about themselves more.
For people sin is something that they don`t like, and cause they don`t like it they call it a sin and talk other people how that is bad, and other shitty things. I don`t pay attention too much on all the people, you can go crazy if you get bothered what will people think.

People replying to this thread aren't sticking their nose in other people's business.

I responded to some scriptures including the Bible with full consideration of logic, analogy with things easier as we are not allowed to gamble by parents when we were kids, fear is the majority of addiction effect that can cause everything including sin, gambling also contain the same elements. But if we think with full responsibility, that suggestion doesn't apply. We use 50:50 pattern, half of gamblers will perform brutal after losing a gamble but I assume that I personally was in position of the other half, I included gambler who is able to manage myself from any situation positively.

Gambling is a sin in many religions. Their argument is that you cannot predict the future and only God can. In fact this is a bit of the truth,  you can only try your luck in gambling but you cannot predict the future. I wonder what has been going through the head of the persons who have won big jackpots from gambling and how many time did they play before hitting it Roll Eyes
Things make most rules in this world did not support gambling is because of the unfair money game.
The one have to lost a lot of money and the other won it , the one take a lot of advantage and the othet did not.
That's what i think why a lot of groups/religions prohibit gambling and consider it as a sin, it was hurting other people, cheering on affliction other people.

Playing gambling isnt a sin because its just a game which you would entertain yourself in the times you were bored or seeking for leisure times but gambling would create a sin when the times when you did things like greediness and possible making illegal actions because of addiction.

Agree, and it will be a sin if you let money can control you, don't let that money can control you, you must know how to control your money and our greediness. Gambling is not really a sin, unless you do something that will be a sin because of your addiction in gambling.

Definitely not a sin. It is ok to gamble and place bets. You are not doing anything bad. IMO betting alot is bad, maybe a sin, but not just betting a little bit
