Gambling- a sin? I have never thought about it that way and I am sure most of the people don't think it that way. Gambling is just a fun nothing more than that but yeah some take it as an easiest way to earn money.
No its not. But it can manifest GREED which is not good and can ruin your life. People who gamble should have a self control to gamble responsibly
Gambling is considered as sin because like many other things which are sins have similar bad effects on society. We can not say with gambling only a person's life is effected since we live in society with other people. Problems created by these prohibited things create restlessness in family,home and society. We can not mix gambling with money and everyday life's issue where we also take risk but nature is different of these two.
No, it's not a sin at all. It's fun while you know your borders and when you don't, it becomes your own stupidity. I consider stupidity a sin, though. You should make sure that you've the proper willpower before joining the game or avoid it. But one's lack of willpower isn't the sin of the game. Game's just game. You choose what to play with.
It's not really a sin to gamble because you can do whatever you want as long you gamble with your own money.
I agree, as long as you gamble with your heart's content and you don't hurt someone else, there is no wrong to it. What's wrong is if it already affects your family or colleagues. It becomes a sin if you start hurting them just to gamble for your own pleasure. Gambling is only a sin if you are addicted to it.
Are you a Christian? A muslim? If not, I don't think it is a sinful thing. Or is gambling in your country? If still no, why are you sinful? It is real life.
I think these religions consider gambling as a sin because of the reason of addiction, people often become addict to gambling and they do not care about their wealth and their future and continue to gamble with them. So I think in those games where we do not become addicted and play there only for getting some entertainment it will be fair.
I will beg to differ to anyone says it would be a sin to gamble.
It is your decision if you want to do it or not. Nobody is forcing your hand to place a wager on a game or put your coins in to a slot machine. But what is a sin is if you are losing your money and trying to get money to continue gambling by stealing then I say it is.

I think that gambling is really a part of our life. I am not referring to gambling games but in our daily life. We people really encounter problems in which we should have to gamble
It's very wrong, if you said it then you are already entered into the black ring (addiction), gambling. Because the majority of people in this world do not use the gambling, but they still can live very well and can also get something they want in a short time. So it's not about gambling, but into a matter of thought. If we are wrong to think and not be able to see all sides it will be bad
Well i think i have to defend my answer. I wasn't referring in gambling games mate. What am i actually saying is that in life all of us do really come to a point in which we have to choose to gamble in making our decision
Agree totally. Everything in life involves some level of Rik at some point. I mean we could be struck by lightning tomorrow. It probably won't happen but the odds are there and we know it does happen since we see it in the news. It just doesn't happen often. Its like if you cros the road there is risk to be knocked over and killed. But we can improve pur chances substantially by being careful. However in the gambling world you can't reduce your risk % only the risk amount. Hence martingale strategy was born.

Its a sin only if you consider it a sin. Things by itself are not a sing, this is religious delusion. You must choose if you want to gamble or not. Personally I have never had a problem with gambling and there are worse things to do.
I actually also no problem with gambling, but many religious leaders say that it is a sin. so I feel that it is a sin. Well, if you do not have a problem with that you're free to play until you lose all that you have

I believe it will become sin when the way you gamble is wrong, Lets say you have money that should be spend in something important like donating it to a church or for an operation to someone you love. But instead of paying that money you gambled it first trying to double it or make it more and the result you lose everything. For me that is when it become a sin.

For me it is not bas as long as you don't getting hurt other people around you, as long as you know how to handle your financial, and as long as you family is not affected. I think gambling is not bad.
yeah for my religion is a sin, but I believe most religions forbid gambling, as well as several countries mostly prohibit gambling because it's sin and have a bad impact.
It doesn't even have to be your religion. It can start off as harmless fun then become a sin because you rather steal and entertain yourself through gluttony and chasing after a sin of greed bring no good no matter I'd you religious or not. Also the word sin is a little misleading. A sin can be murder without reason even if you have no religion it is still a sin. Even if it means its only a sin in the eyes of the law. It is still a sin none the less.
I have to say you are right. The course of the action. Why they did it is more important than the deed on its own. Gambling if you ask me can translate to as a sin if you put at risk the money that is not yours..

I am not completely sure but i think in my religion gambling is considered as a sin.In my family culture also they will all consider it really bad.
But in my personal opinion gambling is not a sin yes it may be really bad for someone who gets addicted to it.
