It is a sin when we lost our money and it isn't when we won huge amount of money from gambling....jk. To be honest, most people around me said that gambling is indeed a sin but unfortunately, I don't care! As long as I can enjoy it.

You dont care? Do you know what is the purpose of sin? Dont you know what happens if we sin? Dont you know what we will get if we sin a lot? When we talk about sin, it is not a playful thing, I suggest you to care about it.

It is a sin, admit it. It is pretty much like lying. You know that you are not allow to lie no matter in what religion you are however you could keep on justifying yourself telling it to yourself that it is fine to lie. In the end no matter what you think, it doesnt matter because it is a sin and it will be a sin that you have committed
I think you are right, when you compare gambling with lying, because even it's a sin, we are always, justifying to ourselves and telling that is fine.
Anyways, personally i see that is a sin when you hurt someone else with gambling, for exemple stealing money for gambling or rent some money and do gambling, which you can lose the money of peoples. All these idea are too bad. But if you just gambling with your money and don't affect your financial situation for you or for you family, this is acceptable.

Dude, all religions always a rules and gamble always is a sin in all religions. It's better to not think about sin if you want keep gambling on your life. Because it's only distract you and if you really afraid about sin, stop gambling then. It's funny though, when people said it's sin if you lose and not sin when you win lol.

Its too funny to compare the bitcoin gambling with the religious view. There are many business which is similar to gambling with high risk involvement. Many people are doing it. I don't think bitcoin gambling is very hard to make earning. You need to choose betting to earn bitcoins without big risks with this option.

Depends on your view of things and your religion, Regardless of it being a sin or not (IMO depends on what money you are gambling in the first place, since using online earned money doesn't feel that wrong), Regardless, it's a very bad hobby that cost people ALLOT of money...

I agree regardless if it is a sin or not (depends on the religion), gambling will always give you unfavorable results especially when you get addicted to it. I always tell my friends to stop gambling because it has the potential to alter your personality when it comes to money. I have this friend that always go to casinos every month until last year, he sold his house due to the debts pilling-up. Nothing good will come out of gambling even if most of the times you win money. The strong temptation to bet until your last penny is so strong that you can even lose everything. So please, if ever you know people who gambles frequently, tell them to stop.

Is gambling OK? Don't bet it! There's not an easy or instantly obvious proof text answer to that question.
Gambling is not a sin okay? Gambling is form of entertainment the deals with money. Logically, why some people tells  that it is bad to gamble because gambling may lead to Greed, and greed is one of the 7 deadly sins this is why some says that gambling is bad

Unless you gamble with the money you do not own, it is not a sin though it is not a good habit nor it will give others a good impression to you.

Imo it is not a sin unless you're addicted to gambling. Then it might be a sin for you, but as long as you're not addicted and you're having fun when gambling it's definitely not a sin.

It also really depends on country where you live. Gambling is not a sin in USA or most of Europe countries, but i am sure that it is sin in Middle east, as there are even laws that makes gambling forbidden.

The belief of the individual is different from person to the next one. Maybe they have a religion or person belief.
We have live different lives and have different reasons for believing those things.

i think no matter what religion it is gambling would always considered as a bad thing and most of them fully agreed that it was a sin and prohibited. so if you are a religious person then stop it immediately and obey what you believe. otherwise just go ahead and ignore everything around you as long as you get what you want and didn't harm other people.

Of course it's okay to gamble as long as you gamble with discipline. If you can't control yourself from greediness, it should be a sin and you should stop it. Every gamblers must have a mind set which is to play what you can only afford to lose.

It is sin if you are going to lose the money which is not yours, let's say that you spent your money for the tuition in your school, of course you are doomed when this thing happen because you are going to be scolded by your parents doing such thing over studying and so on, but still, gambling is a sin, a very big sin to GOD, it is written on the Holy Bible, but if you are not a religious person, then I guess that you are just going to say that gambling is not a sin as long as you are not messing with other people lives.

The only thing I know is that we cannot judge anyone with whatever we do because they area accountable for it to God.
Gambling as per definition is a form of entertainment and by analyzing it, we can already tell we have to spend to be entertain and it's up to a certain gambler if he will seek for the money which is very hard and he will live a desperate life then that is the time he made a sin but don't blame it to gambling.

We all have different thinking about gambling, then a huge people think that gambling is a sin, and a huge number of people have no thinking of sin for gambling. Then the different is in our thinking. Also some people discuss about religious then they think gambling is a sin. But i always say that, little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Then only play gambling for fun and whenever we win then think gambling give you reward.

Well, I was taught from childhood, that the gambling game is a sin, so I believe it is a sin. But, all depends again on each other's stance, because the purpose of each person in playing gambling is different. Maybe that purpose makes gambling play not a sin.
Gambling can't be called sin. Even though gambling is kind of wrong but in general gambling doesn't do anything to others it just affects the person who is gambling and the owners who may earn or lose.

When we talk about sin, we must bring religion here. And do you think that the thing that sin is only a disservice to others? That's not true. Do not you think that things that can harm you but not harm others is not included with sin. Although gambling sometimes only makes misery to oneself, if religion establishes as a sin, it is a sin. The thing that sin is not only when we harm others.
You didn't get my point first of all why do we follow such a religion which stops us from doing what we like or doesn't allow us to live peacefully. If a person like gambling that's totally his wish. If he loses that is his fault. Even though he loses he likes gambling so religion is no one to take his happiness away from him. It will only be considered sin when it steals money from others to gamble or any other wrong way
We have different religion so we have different judgement on the topic whether gambling is a sin or not, as for me gambling is
never a sin, it's fun and although we can lose our money but the fun it brings would justify it.
It shouldn't be called a sin because of religious reasons as many religious consider gambling to be sin but thete will surely be a group of people who will still gamble even though it isn't allowed. It can be a sin for people based on their opinions and not at all gambling shouldn't be consider sin based on different religious reasons

Lets say that they are also a member of the said religion which do treat gambling as a sin but in reality some of them do make gamble which we cant really be avoided since gambling is just really a pure entertainment which we can able to stress out ourselves on playing it. Sin would only occur when you are already doing bad things because of too much addiction on it. We should not generally treat it as way other do treat it. We do have our own views when it comes to gambling and we should really respect each others views.

I play gambling for fun and I admit that I think that it is a sin as well however I dont really want to think about it because it is hard to think about that kind of thing . I only want to have fun and if it is a sin then Im going to accept the punishment for it but for now as long as I can have fun then I will do it

Some religions may say that gambling is a sin. But I do not consider it a sin, because you can win and provide for your family or help other people. It's good.

It is not a sin to play gambling, if you do not lose all the money and do not get into debt. And when dependence on gambling is harmful not only to you, but to others, it's bad.

For others it is and for you it isn't. I have two thoughts for this, for those people that believes gambling is a sin, maybe they are thinking that it can lead you to bankruptcy and when you are now like that you'll think to commit crime.

It will depend on their experience with gambling, some thinks it as a drug that can destroy once life, but it will only happen without any control ,Anything that is too much and being abuse may not really result good.

It is drug to others or they are comparing it with the same way because it is causing them to be addicted. And once a gambler is addicted to it, they will have hard time to recover with it.
A sin is an action that has trespass any government rules and regulations and has violated the moral laws or laws of God. An act that is committed and some people got harmed. I do not think that gambling is a sin especially if you are just playing for fun and that you have not done anything wrong just for you to be able to play. Like, stole money, sold important things in life like house title and cars just to have the money to use for betting.


There are people who gambles just for fun and it will be unfair to make them feel and see them as sinners just because they were playing gambling. I know how gambling addicted is but as long as someone is just playing for fun and excitement there is nothing wrong about it.
