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.

This thread going on from some long time now. Its a sin an all major religions and people who conduct a relatively healthy life , by going to work , trying to live normally. Its not a sin for all low moral people who thinks its nothing wrong to gamble and take other people money from this activity. I also think consensus will never be achieved here.

I don't think consensus can reach some where to see everyone on the same page.Gambling is sin or not regardless of the views.It is a social problem which caused many social problems.Gambling is good as long as person is aware of its effects and has full control over his emotions and plays for fun,entertainment and making some small money while enjoying gambling.

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

Personally, i think it is a sin, and most of the religions not allow the gambling, but i don't want to go in deep, but it is clear that gambling is a bad habit, but if we play it like a fun or entertainment, so it has an other meaning. But so far as i know in my religion not allow to play gambling, and i accept it.

Man said you nicley, if you don't like it then don't do it. You don't like to gamble and for you that is a sin. That how religious people think, what ever they don't like they call it a sin, and give other bad names....

Go a bit deeper and you will see the truth, but religious people like to push their way of thinking. Well I like to gamble, its not a sin, its not bad habit its just a game. Like everything else in this world. Have fun and enjoy in things you do, that is a life worth of living.

To gamble is to decide on possible results in which would likely be on two or more choices for a result or even an uncertain result. Since sin was mentioned then some of us would likely link this with religion which could be a sin or would not be. It is like doing something with multiple possible results and leaving it all in the hands of God to whatever the result will be. But if you say sin in the laws of the land then it could probably mean doing wrong for violating a rule of law in which depends if it is legal or illegal to gamble in that country.

yes it depends on religion. but I think every religion forbids gambling and it's a sin. because gambling is bad so it was really a sin.

Gambling is considered as sin in some religions.Even in some parts of the world it is illegal and others it is allowed.We can not reach to some common result.It is something which most of the times leads to its followers towards deeper troubles and social and personal problem.It is sin or not but is prohibited and disliked as well.

I think if i am winning good amount with gambling than it is good for me and it is wonderful way to spend my time on various gambling sites, but someone lose huge amount suddenly than he feel so bad and in that kind of situation it is sin but it depend on our situation and i don't think it is sin to gamble.

Gambling can quickly lead to a combination of the 7 Deadly Sins. Does this mean that gambling itself is a sin? No, but it leads down to those roads more often than not and people who gamble often already have traits or are actively participating in the 7 Deadly Sins. A game of chance for money isn't really against any religion that I know of. It's just a type of game.

It is not a sin to gamble in my opinion if the person wants to gamble the he or she shoud gamble. As long as they do not hurt other people with it I am oke with gambling.

Gambling is not a sin as long as the money you used for it are not from illegal sources like scamming people.

It will only become a sin if you are so much into it and neglect the proper doings of a person to his self, and to people on his surroundings, always try to remember that gambling is only made for our entertainment, not for earning money or for being a slave of it.

its depend on the religion you have or believe i don't think so its sin in Christianity but if you talk about Islam then its a sin in Islam

but seeing you trust rating i can tell you one thing that SCAMMING people is a sin in all religion so you should think about that 1st LOL

Gambling is a sin because it can bring up negative traits such as greed and selfishness; it’s how the world is corrupt. You have so much money but can’t share it with people around you. If you can’t control your gambling habits then it’s definitely as sin.

Actually, 99% of people who do have a negative nature of gambling and have a very bad impact on the society. they are more worried about gambling than their life in society, so that they do not have a friend and finally vent the pique with uncontrolled gambling.

Your explanation sounded almost like gambling was the main reason behind constant civil wars in Muslim countries.
If you think that gambling is the reason why people are being greedy and selfish then think again - it is pure human nature.

Gambling can be classified as problem, (or a sin as many of you would rather call it, because 'problem' is something that is caused by you, and sin is something you have very little influence over)
only when it creates more problems. Stop demonizing gambling - there are people who gamble responsible out there.

its difficult to state a finality remarks since the topic gamble is link to sin. Sin could be discussed in religious discussions or conversation based on the religions doctrines and views. If it was wrong it will be based on the laws of a specific organization or institution and also for family values. The explanation for the question "is it a sin to gamble" will have different views explanation due to different beliefs and doctrine interpretation for religions. But if your heaven is Las Vegas then it is not a sin. Cheesy

Yeah your right if gambling is in las vegas . but not only vegas has gambling, many countries has gambling casino and some of them gambling is illegal and all religion i think its a sin..

Gambling is not that sin if it gives you fun and it is also important that you have to control yourself it will be sin if you are losing a lot of money and you are not realizing that.
And you have to also save some money for backup otherwise the chance to be poor will be high.

It is your life and you money so if you want to gamble then it is your choice and you should gamble, some people are becoming happy because of gambling. If you get happy from it then you should do it.

although it is a choice, I think that gambling is a sin, it's because you rely on the luck you have. if it was just fun it's probably not why. however, if you search for money through gambling, I think it was sinful, not all religions also prohibit it right? but if you do not believe in religion, then it is your choice, but I also sometimes gamble Grin
