its not a real sin if you ask me because its depending on how you are playing, if you play it for the profit its a sin.
If you are just playing for the enjoyment its in my opinion not a sin and also not bad at all.
How does playing for profit mean it's a sin? I mean it's a game involving money so the very idea of it is playing with and for profit.

In some religions you are not allowed to gamble with money. There are even some religions where you can charge interest on money either.

This is true but in fact I really do not think its bad because if it is your religion you should not do it.
Of course it than will be a sin.
So it's entirely subjective to what Religion you chose to follow or had grown up in your family. There is not ultimate answer to the question if it is a sin or not?

If it's a sin consider me the devil. I like to play poker all the time. I however do not feel as if it is a sin because I don't do anything wrong. Just playing games which I enjoy.

I think that it is not a sin to gamble because the people need to make there own choices and need to have there own opinion about things. If they want to gamble that is there problem.
if talking about sin, is concerned with religion. the actual gambling a sin and is forbidden by religion.
but you are right, each has a choice, because of sin or not, that's between you and god.

As far as I know, gambling considered a sin in all world religions.
In addition, it falls within 4 out of 7 deadly sins.
true, but sometimes very many people who play it, to drive away their boredom, even I also sometimes always predict the score of a ball game. although it is classified as a sin, I think it also has included a hobby a person who is very difficult to stop
For gamblers is not a sin to gamble but in our religious its a sin because its money involve.. if you are reading some bible you will see it that money is evil.. this is just read it in bible but i don't really know why gambling is sin..

I don't think so that money is evil.. because everyone working for making this money only. So according to you all people are running behind evil?. Yes i agree many people are playing it because of there stress and boredom. But if any one become this gambling is there hubby it is very difficult to come out.

It is not a sin if you gamble for fun but if you are addicted then it is a sin because you will lost time for your family and to socialize with people, gambling will become your god and Jesus does not want any God except the Father.

I think yes it is a sin, as when ever you get someones money without any return to them, then you are making him/her lose and so giving harm to anyone is sin.

If someone is religious person than gambling is sin for sure but i think the most worse situation is that when we got busted all of money there than we have a lot of though into our mind, from my personal opinion gambling is not sin because for some people it is way of living as they have good knowledge to make good profit.

I think gambling itself is not a sin, however, it may very well lead you to do things that may cause harm to you or other people's lives. For me it's a form of entertainment, and a very old one at that. The problem is when people become too addicted to gambling even when they don't have the means for it anymore.

Why would gambling be sinful? Maybe the attitude towards gambling is sinful because you get greedy. Also you might get really mean towards people if you're losing so that's a sin. Gambling itself? Probably not...it's just a game for fun and people take it too far.

It is only sin to gamble when you are losing a lot of money with it and that happens only when you are really greedy and that is bad if that happens to you.
But you have to know that there will be more people that is realizing that gambling is bad and that is nice.
Whether you're winning or losing shouldn't really effect the fact if it is a sin or not. Gambling is not inherently bad, it's the chasing over lost money that is.
And that's where you start to get debt and do bad things to get out of it. So gambling isn't bad but you made it lead you to do bad things.
Yeah, when you lost amount of money in gambling the person will start to do bad things to obtain some money, they will try to steal and rob and the funny things is gambling is so addicting, some people willing not to eat but used it for gambling
Gambling can caused so many bad things to happen, that is the reason why gambling is prohibited in my religion

For me its not a sin lol.Gamblin for me is just for fun and entertainment.Even gambling is not illegal at all i think so gambling and bettings is not a sin.I think that will be a sin if you loan money and lose it thats the sin
Yes even i too not play much and i treat Gambling is just Fun and Entertainment only. So here gambling is not wrong if you earned money from gambling and loosing it in same gambling is not wrong but playing with our real money is problem. SO gambling and betting is not sin.
