Of course it's a sin, i think every religion also said that gamble is forbidden and it is a sin. But if you don't trust any god and atheist, i think gamble is no problem for you. Well, it's depend on yourself though. It's better to forget about sin or something like that when gambling, because when you gambling i'm sure you will not remember about sin and you only think about profit.

If we keep on attaching religion to things that we really want and need to do, it will just slow you down. When it comes to gamble, everyone know, even those who don't believe in anything that it is going to be wrong, though they don't think of it as a sin, they could see that it could affect their lives and the people around them.

So better forget about religion when you want to feed your desire.  Smiley

You can not blame gambling about what It has done to other people. I think it is because they can not control themselves and their greedy. Greed is one of the nature feelings which we must learn to govern it otherwise it will ruin our life. Becoming addicted is the best lesson which a person can obtain from gambling. Soon, he will understand what is good and what is bad for him.

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

Some religion state it as a sin obviously, because it brings losses than winnings as we know except for the house.
If you play without put any money on bet it's consider not as gambling imo and fine to do.
What worse is addicted to gambling and ruin your life, that's why it's forbidden.

well, I think it is only illegal to gamble in some region. In my country, it is not a sin to gamble but if you are found gamble, you might be caught by the police. Most of the people in here love to gamble but due to the laws, they have to gamble secretly in order not to be arrested. Therefore, gambling is not a sin here Cheesy

Well ,gambling is not a sin it only begins to be a sin if you abuse yourself that leads you to do some wrong doings like stealing money and making some move only to get some money to play in gambling .My mom told me that gambling is a sin because you it is bad to play with your money .but now i conclude it will and will depend on how you treat gambling is.

Where is that written scripture about gambling? I haven't seen one... Not all and not many gamblers end up in commiting crime when they don't have money to bet... Some of them still has good mind, they invest on things that they know they could use in the future like buying some things that they know has a value, then pawn it later on when they have money...Though they do not commit crime, in the end, they suffer when they grow old and don't have anything that they need... Most of the gamblers are failure when it comes to rainy days in life...  Smiley

Two things. If it is against your beliefs and/or religion and if you are gambling money you can't afford to lose, then it is a sin. If gambling would be contradicting with your religion or beliefs then you should consider gambling as a sin, because it is. Regarding the second one, it's about practicality. You should consider it as a sin, because you are gambling money you don't want to lose because there would be a negative effect.

its depend on people which doing gamble because i think they know that playing gambling is a sin but they still playing gambling as gambling offering the big money to them and they can get it with easy. its depend on the point of your view, if you think gambling is a sin, they you know what you should do. but if you are fine with that, then you can playing gambling.

I don't think it is a sin to gamble. Especially when you're gambling with non-tangible items whose value are extremely ambiguous Smiley

Playing gambling isnt a sin because its just a game which you would entertain yourself in the times you were bored or seeking for leisure times but gambling would create a sin when the times when you did things like greediness and possible making illegal actions because of addiction.

You said it right its not really a sin after all because we dont just make gambling on playing games but its still connected on our daily life situation on which we do really need to gamble to earn something and speaking of gambling games its not a sin as long you are not doing bad things when got addicted into it.

You mean the 7 deadly sins. Gambling is not part of that.
Lust, Envy, Greed, Pride, Sloth, Wrath and Gluttony.
 There is no gambling right? Greed comes after those who just cant control themselves. But not everyone is like that. Some just play for fun and some just play to waste some time. It is not a sin after all. It is what will come next when you got so hooked with it.

I agree with you, I think every religion does not justify gambling. I think gambling is not a good thing for everyone, so gambling is a sin. But this time gambling was considered a natural thing by people, they are not concerned about gambling, and considers gambling is a casual game that can bring in money. So it is not just for people who do not believe in God, gambling is not a problem for many people.

I would say yes, it's not a sin. We play it to have fun and we know the risks in gambling so we have to manage ourselves carefully. It's okay to lose if you are getting the fun you are looking and to lose is just part of the life of being a gambler and as long as we know our limit and we do it responsibly there would be no problem in the future and there is no one we will blame.

I dont think gambling to be a sin, because it is not a related religion stuff. And Gambling is the reason why people are having a sin which is greed, but if you know how to control yourself, you dont need to worry because you know yourself that you are just gambling because you enjoy it and it is just your entertainment activity. God did not tell us that gambling is forbidden, unless you are stealing and being greedy.

I do gamble but I know myself who I am and what I am doing, I am not against any of the 10 commandments.

It's only a sin if you do it in excess just like drinking or eating too much. If you don't let it affect your ability to support yourself or your family and don't get addicted to it, it shouldn't be a problem.
It is not a sin, it is just a problem but not a sin, eating to much of drinking to much is not a sin. It will just make your health bad.

What bad in gambling is that it makes not only your health bad but if you gamble away all the money you hurt those who near you, your relatives, your friends, those who love you. I don't know if gambling is a sin, but it is a bad thing if you don't know how to stop, for sure.

It is a sin, if we are going to ask the Holy Bible, the answer is yes, it is a Sin, though people are saying that it is not, but it is just people's opinion, what we have to believe is the Holy Bible, and not the people's opinion, and what you have said was true, this Gambling doesn't bring us any good fortune or good things, but it is the opposite.

Because it won't bring any good to us if it is a Sin in the first place and it is prohibited by our Almighty God, we don't need to do it, because it will just lead us on the wrong path, but since most of us won't believe this because they are still convincing themselves that this is not a Sin, and they would win back what they have lost.

The effect of gambling is the one that let us commit sin. Because when we gamble and experience to win that is going to make us greedy.
