Gambling is sin in every religion and is prohibited.The reality is in spite of prohibition it is practiced in every part of world.People are gambling in in most conservative countries.There is no doubt about it is being sin.

I see you are an expert on every existing religion on Earth. Interesting. I can assure you - you are wrong. Even in The Bible there is NOTHING that indicate that gambling is sin of any kind.
In fact even apostles gambled when they need to chose successor of Judas Iscariot. Not to mention many times people gambled in Old Testament.
The only thing The Bible say for sure is: to not fell in love with money and lose yourself in greed.

To be more specific the Bible says in 1 Timothy 6:10, "For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs." The Bible doesn't say that money is evil, or that gambling is a sin, but it does say that the love of money is the root of evil. If pursing money consumes you and becomes an idol, it is a sin.

Gambling is not sin it is something which is not liked because of its effect.Gambling in perspective of its impact on social life of a gambler is forbidden.It is cause of more disturbance and negativity than some positive as general.But people still are gambling like me and everyone.

Well, everyone is different view. if we follow our thinking, maybe gambling is not a sin, it's just one of those games that could produce and eliminate the money we have. but as they say, in all religions, gambling is a sin.

Well, in the religion of course all gambling is a sin, I might reduce my schedule in gambling because of this and maybe I'll stop. but maybe not that fast.
Sometimes people look at gambling just a game, so in their opinion it is not a sin

Your right honestly all people they dont know that gambling is not a sin because they are not always study or reading the bible to know if gambling is a sin or not.. if we always watch the movie of the passion you can see there that jesus save people they distruct all gambling things..in the movie.. you will see there that gambling is a sin..

Not sure if gambling is a sin in every religion. But yes if you see it that way then some people are following modified religion, they pick what is good from their religion and use it, and what they think is not good for them, they avoid. Funny, but truth.

No gambling is not a sin , hehe . Its a addiction that makes you do sin Tongue

Addiction is coming from you so if you said addiction make you to do sin that means it is already happen when you start to gamble your money tight away. And I dont think gamble is sin or even the people because this is entertain business, so there is no called like sin or whatever it is, just some entertainment

I also would like to add my comments in this discussion whether gambling is sin or not.Gambling is considered sin in many societies and almost every culture around the globe.I think it is more a matter of social norm and is disliked because of its negative effects.We all know many stories around us how people ruined their lives with gambling addiction.

I think gamble is a sin to every religion. But i'm sure gambler don't care about that and not even think that. Just focus to win on gambling, sin or not sin is not their problem.

Yes it is a sin for some people because their religion says : Any such money is wrong that doesn't come by hard work.

i am not an expert but the reason why religions consider gambling as a sin is not what you said. it is wrong because of the negative effects it can have on people's lives like addiction, losing money, going bankrupt,...

Gambling has existed as long as human kind has existed on this planet. It all depends on an individual how view gambling. There are those who gamble and use dubious means to gain while there are those who gamble in a genuine way. if you gamble using dubious means that I can call it as a sin, the other way round is okay

This is all relative and it depends on your own view on morality. Some people view it as a sin, some not and it's impossible to say who is right or wrong...
In my opinion it's not a sin and I do not think it's immoral.

I slightly disagree with you, I feel that gambling is a sin, it is because he can make a person lose his mind and become insane if he was totally hooked

I understand what you are saying and it's your right to believe that gambling is a sin. But I would argue that in the example you've given, it's more because of certain personality traits of the person in question that causes the addiction.

I think it's wrong to put blame on gambling for causing people to get addicted, this may sound harsh, but I think addicts themselves are responsible for getting addicted.
And I say this as a recovering addict (not gambling), it's easy to blame substances, gambling or whatever other vice, but accepting responsibility is really important towards fixing your situation.

Gambling is oke everyone wants to win some money but do not go overboard. Do not see gambling as your main thing in life. Do not rely on it because if you do that it will go wrong and you might lose everything.

Well with that, gambling could be a sin if you abuse it...when you are starting to use too much effort and resources in gambling, that way you might forget your family, your self, and your job which I think could affect your family life and in turn would be a sin..

Indeed I think relying on it is never good because you cannot even rely on the bitcoin these days because of the unpredictability.
Also gambling can be good in the overall experience but I do not recommend you to do it a lot because it also has a lot of risks of course
