On my end I do stop gambling on those days however not because of the ocassion or to give honor of it, but because most of the family members are out of their work and I just don't want to miss the bond with them. Also, gambling I think is not really stated in bibles and are justmorally wrong with societal views. Gambling made an impression to many people as an addictive activity. And with religious beliefs, many people are not really putting that much emphasis of it.

If ever I will be in a mood to gamble during that period then I'd probably do. It just happens that gambling is never my priority. There are still other activities which would consume my time and taking breaks from gambling is a good idea. Gambling more often means bigger tendency to lose more as well, given that we have no control of the winning outcome. Exposure to gambling is our exposure to risk.

It varies really.

I may stop or not whenever I want but with these feasts or celebrations, I don't think that I'll even be affected by them. And those that are religious, it doesn't matter whether you stop.

Why? because you're still gambling after the feasts and your devotion will just be in vain when you gamble again. And that's based on the belief of the religion that you are in.

Just as most have said - I’m not a frequent gambler, there are times I go without gambling I mean weeks without open wing my gambling account and if I should observe that any of my religion activities is around the corner that requires my total commitment I’ll simply just put my gambling on hold (which I’m quite familiar with) and do what needs to be done.

Christianity is a weird religion.

In recognized holy religious texts there's no mention of gambling. However most priests will say it's a mortal sin to gamble, play cards or derive enjoyment from such games.


Is this necessary? You could have just answered the question without having to first attack any religion - no matter the religion I believe in, I still feel it is wrong to talk bad about the other even if your beliefs are different you should respect them also (atleast all religions preach about respect and love).

In my case, I usually slow down and stop all my gambling activity, two weeks before the religious activity so I can fully reflect on my religion, and after the religious activity, I usually take a week before I get back to my normal gambling activity.

You participation in this discussion is appreciated.
For all Christians, this season is known as the "Lenting" season, a period of deep self reflection, fasting and Armsgiving to the poor and people in need, mostly observed by Catholic and other dinominations all around the world. The "Lenting Season" symbolize a period of 40 days which Jesus fasted both day and night in the wilderness, and hence every year Christians are expected to observe such deep self reflection to strengthen their faith. So in a period like this, it's okay for a gambler to reduce the pace at which he/she gambles if only he can't stay away from it during this 40 days Lenting period.

In religious events or sacred events, gambling activities must be stopped far away from this day what I do even though some people say slowing down is not a problem because it returns to those who carry out activities.

I gamble not for all the time sometimes on weekends for fun or when more money is available, but suppose there is no extra money to gamble there are more important affairs in the real world then it will leave gambling it is not a priority anymore not even an income earner so why do we need to slow down even if taking a month or more break is not a problem right?

You participation in this discussion is appreciated.

If we are being realistic here, I really don't see any way in which our religious activity affects our gambling life. A gambler can choose to do when ever he feels like playing and when he doesn't. If we often tangle religion with gambling, then may be there won't be much gamblers than we see today. I know that everyone has their own belief or religious rules they try to abide to, but how do we know that  some respected religious leaders don't involve in gambling and make it look strict on the face of his follows. So what I'm saying here is that what ever you choose to see it as should be yours.
For me I don't gamble frequently so when ever Im less busy I just pick up my phone and go online to play some games. So it really don't !atte rif you are in a religious week, if you feel like playing then you may choose to.

Christianity is a weird religion.
....

what do you mean by weird? it's not christians who are weird, but individuals who violate their religious rules who are weird. because in christianity gambling is prohibited and has been explained clearly. so when someone violates this, it is not the teachings that are "weird" but the individual who violates this, and it is entirely the individual's fault.

There is no single verse in the Bible that discusses gambling, so I don't know where religious teachers got the teachings that gambling is forbidden in Christianity. The Bible only talks about being in a rush to get wealth which can also be related to other life endeavours including gambling. The Bible focuses more on moderation in anything you do including drinking alcohol. I will not agree that Christianity is weird but I will concur that it is different religious teachers that come up with different teachings that are making the religion complicated. Some preachers will tell you that drinking alcohol is a sin, but this is not the position of the Bible. It is better to read and study the Holy and also pray yo get understanding.      
While the bible is not clear about saying things directly against gambling, it's very clear against chasing money and wealth:
Matthew 19:24
Quote
Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”
In my own personal view most of Christianity is very hypocritical in these things. The bible was very much against money, and yet there's almost no church that speaks out against governments that try to profit from medicine, private healthcare or gambling nevertheless. The pentacle of this ironic situation is that it's mostly governments in Christian countries that implement these policies and still support their local Christian churches. It's a very peculiar dynamic.

I have no judgment for what individuals choose to do, but we have to admit that many things Christian churches turn a blind eye to are very antithetical the even the bible itself.

Whether there's some religious event or something or having none then there would really be no difference since when it comes to gambling then everything is still on moderation.
I do play when im bored and when im seeking up for some entertainment and never ever make myself that being impulsive or trying out to approach and gamble out into those
unneccessary moments as long i do have that control then thee would really be no issues. The wrong thing only about on people who do keep on playing gambling is on the time
that they do lose of control and dont really be able to make themselves not mindful about into those important things that they should really be doing from the start.

It will no longer be a requirement but simply a matter of balancing one's own life, even if it is not religious and affected by holidays, from the perspective of an occasional chess player, I see it as similar to some other activities in society. Everything needs to know the enough factor and don't overdo it. If everything happens naturally, imo don't see any problem before or after.

But I also think there will be people who feel really influenced by their actions, like you're driving leisurely and a police car is chasing you and asks you to stop to check and then still going.

Did you slow down or are you taking a vacation? how long is your vacation before and after the religious activity?


Religion is a strong tool for control and to order obedience in followers and during religious activities, some certain behaviour do reduce because those followers who are known to be involved in all those would desist from it. Take for example those who smoke, womanize, drunk or even gamblers stop or reduce their rate of committing such until the festive period is over.

This is not just about the Christian Religion or Islamic but those in traditional worship do have their sacred days that followers would have to stay away from certain behaviour or activities and that is abstainance just like the Christian or Muslim do.

The must popular of them is Christian activities and Muslim. In such times it is well noticed that there is abstainance in certain activities because of the numbers of followers who involve in such activities. People who smoke stay away, also those who do alcohol and gamblers try to stay away even though they could be doing that in secret. They stay away in the guise to seek for the face of God through the holy period, like for example there is the lent period going on for Christians and that will cause the reduction of sale of alcohol and others. I also seek to keep such season holy and that is the normal thing for religious believers.

i already stopped being a Christian. when i got old the story turned out to be like a fairy tale as well. whether there is a holy week Christmas, the gambling doesn't stop. although i rarely gamble offline, they are all available in the city because the casino house is open all the time, and even on sunday, the cockpit arena welcomes people rivaling the attention, and churchgoers are diverted to those places.

the people in holy week though respect the belief that's why most Christian in my country are already taking this week as a time to commemorate Christ.

I am not a regular gambler. I only gamble when I feel like having adrenaline rush. Otherwise I do not gamble to earn money at all. If I am able to earn money, that's a plus and usually use such money into philanthropic causes or donate to religious places.

So usually during religion festivities, my gambling goes down to zero as I usually do not have time to anything else. But there's no religious reason for me to stop gambling. If I don't feel like, I don't gamble.

In my case, I usually slow down and stop all my gambling activity, two weeks before the religious activity so I can fully reflect on my religion, and after the religious activity, I usually take a week before I get back to my normal gambling activity.

You participation in this discussion is appreciated.
Personally, religious activities is everyday and I do not have dedicated time for religious activities. The greatest requirement of my religion is to love humanity, do good to all and always seek divine guidance in the activities of life. Gambling does not constitute a distraction to my religious practice in any way whatsoever.

I am also from a country where there are several religions with relative religious freedom. So there is no compulsion from anyone on the basis of religion neither is there restriction on gambling on the same basis.

There's no stopping, I usually just slow down the intensity of my gambling activities. Gambling has become a means of seeking entertainment for me, so what if I have no entertainment at all? it will be boring days or weeks.

Remember, If during Ramadhan you can stop gambling for more than 1 month you can keep continuing and break the 3-month number. The first 1-2 weeks will be hard for some people my advice transfer all the money into some trustee person.

Really? do you really think like that? remember that fasting in Ramadan isn't a monthly agenda, it's like you don't commit sins from 04:00 AM to 08:00 PM then after 08:00 PM you do what you enjoy again, such as gambling, etc. But thanks for the advice, I will think about it in the next few days before Ramadan comes.

As a Catholic, I can still practice my usual religious activity even on Holy Week without affecting my usual activity including gambling.

Just to be clear even though I won't take a break from gambling during Holy Week, it's considered already a form of disrespect.

I'm a religious and spiritual person but not like those people who have a too deep religious belief as a devotee. I'm sure the Man above won't feel bad about my activity during Holy Week. After all, how religious the person is, depends on their inner-self and not on their respective behavior during any religious important event.

Christianity is a weird religion.

In recognized holy religious texts there's no mention of gambling. However most priests will say it's a mortal sin to gamble, play cards or derive enjoyment from such games.
from what I remember according to them gambling is connected to greed, thus making it a sin and also one of the "deadly sins" that they believe in their religion. The funny thing is, the majority of Christians and other religious people I know love to gamble and I play with them from time to time.

I am not gambling frequently. So why the need for me to take a break. If I have the time to gamble, I will gamble. If I do not have the time, I will not gamble. My gambling activities is not about festive period. It is about having time to gamble. During the festive period, I might have time to be with friends and gamble together which is fun for me.
It is good to have such confidence in yourself. If you can keep this in mind then you shouldn't have a problem with gambling  Gambling attracts many people for non-stop gambling but if one can control himself then gambling addiction can not have much effect on him. Gambling is bad addiction but not for everyone. Gambling is easy and fun for a person who can control himself, but gambling is very difficult for an addict.

I do gamble a lot when I have the time to do so, and I can as well stay off from gambling for more than four days. This is due to some work loads, business activities, and family concerns too. Since I usually gamble on sports games, I could just make my prediction, stake in the games I want, and allow them to run. If, for example, I staked in matches that were supposed to last for like four or five days, I would only have to check for scores once each match was over. 

During any religious practice, I don't use it as an excuse not to gamble; if I actually have time to do so, I will definitely gamble. If I go to any religious gathering, I will definitely return home after the service is over, and if I feel like gambling when I am relaxing, there is nothing wrong with such a habit. What I was doing at that time was just gambling and not committing murder. Come, do we forget that gambling is not something that is bad? It's the way people handle it that makes it look bad, but it's not.

I think this is a good way do reduce people's gambling problems.

Remember, If during Ramadhan you can stop gambling for more than 1 month you can keep continuing and break the 3-month number. The first 1-2 weeks will be hard for some people my advice transfer all the money into some trustee person.

Ask them, to manage your financial economy.

There are many ways to reduce the intensity of gambling to stop gambling. Some gamblers succeed in reducing the intensity of gambling because they realize that gambling is not the best way to multiply their money, they start to shift their plans to long-term investments and gamble just for fun.

Religious holidays may also be a way for a heavy gambling addict to reduce the intensity of his gambling. They can try not to gamble for some time and try to avoid all forms of gambling until the big momentum is over. However, it is still best not to make gambling part of how we double our money, that is the wrong mindset about gambling. If the mindset is changed from earning money to just having fun, then the intensity of gambling can be reduced, and they can even stop because of it.

Christianity is a weird religion.

In recognized holy religious texts there's no mention of gambling. However most priests will say it's a mortal sin to gamble, play cards or derive enjoyment from such games.
from what I remember according to them gambling is connected to greed, thus making it a sin and also one of the "deadly sins" that they believe in their religion. The funny thing is, the majority of Christians and other religious people I know love to gamble and I play with them from time to time.
Gambling is not inherently sinful unless one becomes greedy during the act. However, it is unlikely for a gambler not to experience greed. LOL. And of course, it depends on how deeply you follow the words of God as a Christian. The majority of Christians and members of other religions do partake in gambling. It is true, although not necessarily humorous, many find it to be an enjoyable pastime.
