No its not a sin its risky but you can control yourself like play and dont be addicted.God didn't do anything in gamble here in bitcoin,I think the creator of bitcoin is like a god and he or she did it well for giving so conveniece in life like here in bitcoins,i think its good to know a lot of knowledge in bitcoin even gambling

I think it would be a sin for some religion depending on what they belief, In my religion it is not a sin and it's does not directly mention or refer gambling for money. It will be going to a sin if the people gamble in a gambling game get addicted of it and don't know how to handle their financial and just play without any plan or some of their family is getting affected.

It's only a sin if you're harming yourself , your family or any body else in your environment due to your gambling activities . Religions have mixed up definitions of sins and prohibited deeds that are enlisted in their holly books . That does differ from a religion to another , but i'd prefer believing my own definition that a sin is something that we can apply the right or wrong rule on it and that it's level of danger could affect not only your present , but your future or somebody's else present and future .
Gambling being a sin depends on each person's perspective. However, like you have said, using your gambling activities to hurt others is a very big sin and as long as that can be curtailed and you know how to control yourself, then no shit! Yet I believe, for those who are extreme in gambling, I do not see how they do not end up hurting the people around them.
If we are one with the intention of gambling only for fun then for sure we will not consider gambling as a sin, only those who are addicted and have ruin their lives will think gambling is a sin but they are wrong with that and they are just coward enough not to admit their mistakes, instead they blame it to gambling. If it's a sin then we are all sinners here, I don'a agree with that because gambling is just a form of entertainment to me.
If we have to decide between gambling as a sin or not then I think that it entirely depends upon the religion of a person. If someone is belonging to a religion where this is considered as a corrupt practice then obviously it would be a sin no matter the intention is to have fun or just to make money. Moreover if we have to judge despite religious laws, then gambling is a sin for those who have ruined their lives for it.

It depends on your religion in my opinion and if you don't follow your religion then it wouldn't be much of an effect because you don't fully do or practice your religion right? That's just my point of view. Just like you said, you should face the music by facing what is right in front of you. In the part where you said all sinners, we are, if you believe there is a sin. We're only human.
what makes people feel so sorry and consider gambling as a sin are because of how the money making process in gambling feel like you are stealing other people money indirectly , 9 players lost out of 10 players and only 1 winner who get the prize . guess from where you get that prize? yeah from those people who suffering lost and in the end religion has a rule about that. pretty simple, would you like to obey it? go ahead , ignore it? be my guest.
People are always skeptical when it comes to winning money easily and they therefore term anything that is won easily as not being good. They therefore make a mistake when it comes to gambling because they think money can be easily won during gambling but in reality losing money is the easier thing to do when gambling.
yeah just leave the sin matters when you do gamble , it wouldn't have a good influence discussing about this. as an attitude could only affected by yourself , no doubt people won't feel they have done that as a sin , gambling always emotional. you would only feel regret at the end of the game and it's a circle that has no ends actually.

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

For me it depends the people what a self control they already have. If you are going to or being as a gambler person is you need to be a self control, or a self discipline just to play with it. Gambler is a holy sin by the person who's not really know what is the wrong and the right to do with their own proper way to use it as a gambler.


Well, as for me, gambling is really a sin. But of course, it really depends upon you if you want to gamble or not. If you have strong faith in your religion, or you're a religious one, then gambling is not good for you. You'll just feel guilty when you do it. But for those, who are not really religious, like me (well, I have faith in God even if I'm not that religious) gambling is still okay. As long as you know how to control yourself.

I think gambling becomes a sin if you see it to be sin but iot isn't if you don't see it that way. There are many that will condemn themselves  for doing it and such don't have the mental fortitude to convince themselves otherwise and so for such it is better to completely stay away from gambling because you don't feel good about it.

Bible does not say or mention that it's a sin, but Bible mentioned something about love of money or greed. If it's for fun or entertainment I guess it's not considered as a sin.
perfectly mate,love of money and greed is one of the reason why gambling becomes sin.but what is a sin to a gambler?is it really mater to them?when they can put all their money just to gamble and sometimes comes to the point that own family gets hunger becoz he cant support them .if for enjoyment and controlled well it might not sin.

In my own opinion gambling for me is pretty bad because once a person becomes a gambler he/she has possibilities to become greedy, selfish, full of pride and uncontented person, very fast to get mad.
.
Gambling is a seen in the eye of the law, however in reality gambling will become sin when they abuse it, since they want to earn a lot of money they were gambled toand take the risk because we're believe in our luck.
Moreover our instinct push as to do gambling, in addition our hunch make as confident because they also believe that we win in gambling.

If you seen in the law point of view, then of course you will see mostly people will say that gambling is a sin, it is a proof that in many countries's government are not accept gambling in a legal point of view, but instead of it people like to play it, even it is a sin or not. Also every man has own thinking about gambling sin, so it is depend on the people who want to play it even it is a sin or not want to play it because it is sin.

I don't think so, gambling is still a sin no matter what we do, it is said on the Bible that gambling is a sin so we don't have anything to disagree with that, but I know that we have different point of views in life or beliefs, and I believe on what bible says because it is holy and sacred, and not to others opinion about gambling. If you wanted to do gambling believing that it is not a sin, then do it, we have our own choices in life.
Yes, have own choice. Never go upon others suggestion. Experiment it and if you feel it's good go for it, else just give up. In my view gambling gas got good as well bad as everything has, but this when gone beyond limits affects human lives much worse. So, till the time gambling doesn't affect living its good and when worse part begins its truly a sin.

I do not know about that, which i understand and experience from gambling is when gambling too long. My money would run out.
And if your money would run out you don't have something anymore and if you still crave to gamble since you don't have anything left, you'll be triggered to do something wrong and that can lead you to do sin. Gambling is no sin if you are doing it the right way and you are gambling with your own money. But gambling with the use of other's money without asking them for permission of doing it so then that can lead you to sin and eventually will loose people's trust.

If it is a sin to gamble, then we should be able to conclude that taking risks (in life in general) should be considered as a sin. Gambling is nothing but taking risks but you take it repeatedly. Life is full of things like that unless you live in your mom's basement and you've never experienced anything in real life but use your computer 24/7. What's a sin is lying to your loved ones about where your money is going and why are you always out of money even if you have a day job. What's sin is recklessly gambling your money even if you know that your child is already hungry and needs some milk. Those are the sins that you commit once you are addicted in gambling but gambling itself is not a sin. It's the things we do in order to feed our gambling addiction that's a sin.

I've been reading replies from the past and they are saying that it's considered as a sin in their religion. How is that against your God and their morals? Gambling is just a game by itself. But it's not really a big of a deal if gambling is ever proven to be a sin or not. We all commit sins every now and then, some more often than others, and some worse than others. Just how innocent are you if your only sin was to gamble lol

of course it is a sin but no one care about it

There are people who care about who does not care, it all depends on their individual personality. People who fear sin will care and choose to stay away from gambling, people who keep gambling mean they are not afraid of sin. If you already know that sin means that he will bear the risks. That is his choice.
Yes, it entirely depends upon the way a person thinks about gambling. Some people out there consider it as a sin. These are the ones who are actually seeking money in return of gambling. The other reason behind considering gambling as sin is the religious practices one might follow depending upon his believe. The fun seeking Gamblers do not consider it a sin and find it as a way to spend their leisure time.
Definitely it differs with person to person. Some makes it a sign of virtue, some are making it sin, some are talking about the fun factor of its one side, some are just thinking not to work as it will cause harm. So that really depends on what are the beliefs of person as you have said. Gambling make your income less and then you are considering just bad aspects regarding gambling.

There is no wrong in believing that you can make money in gambling if you are really showing it based on your actions and of course it should be seen on result. Problem will only happen when you are too confident that you can make money despite the fact that you continue losing, and when you lose that is when you did a sin as eventually it will affect your relationship with people that surrounds you, especially your family.
If losing too much which also affecting your personal needs because there's also instances that people lend just to proceed with their gambling problem and when they lose their money they can't afford to pay it back and that's how sin will appear as you are committed to pay your debt but how can you do it if you already loses it and it will just the same thing and same routine for an addicted person.

It's only a sin if you're harming yourself , your family or any body else in your environment due to your gambling activities . Religions have mixed up definitions of sins and prohibited deeds that are enlisted in their holly books . That does differ from a religion to another , but i'd prefer believing my own definition that a sin is something that we can apply the right or wrong rule on it and that it's level of danger could affect not only your present , but your future or somebody's else present and future .
Gambling being a sin depends on each person's perspective. However, like you have said, using your gambling activities to hurt others is a very big sin and as long as that can be curtailed and you know how to control yourself, then no shit! Yet I believe, for those who are extreme in gambling, I do not see how they do not end up hurting the people around them.
If we are one with the intention of gambling only for fun then for sure we will not consider gambling as a sin, only those who are addicted and have ruin their lives will think gambling is a sin but they are wrong with that and they are just coward enough not to admit their mistakes, instead they blame it to gambling.
