I hope this is not offensive in any way ... I am genuinely curious how people look at this topic. I could probably also find this information out online in the form of statistics, but I thought it would be more interesting to see what the other forum members actually have to say for themselves. Thanks in advance.

Please Answer with a PART A and a PART B:


PART A) What General religious background would you fall under? Examples:

Middle East - Judaism, Christianity, Islam, 

Oriental - Buddhism, Hinduism, Janism

Polytheist - Greek/Roman Pantheon

General Spiritual - Witchcraft, New Age, Wiccan, etc.

Athiest / Agnostic - This does not apply to me

All Others - Jedi, etc


PART B) How does gambling make you feel? Examples: is it fine or encouraged, to be avoided, a sin, something that makes you feel guilty, etc.?

For my own answer:

I believe in the Bible quite strongly.

I do not believe the Bible calls gambling a sin. However, it is closely associated with many sins such as greed / coveting as well as having many warnings about being foolish with your money. There could be an argument made that the 'casino' is evil because it purposefully makes money by causing the players to consistently lose bets.

Well ... over 150 views and no comments. I decided to start looking it up.

Islam outlaws gambling.

Judaism frowns upon it (it takes from people rather than giving to the community)

Christianity - Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Methodists, and some Southern Baptists outlaw it ... most denominations lean against it.

Hindu/Buddhist leave it up to the individual but tend to avoid addictive things and feel it is better to give than to take.

I did not quickly find statistics for other groups.

We surely appreciate your interest and your time here.

I just wanted to let you know that, even though no one commented on this topic yet.

It's quite interesting but since I'm not a religious guy I probably don't have much to say about it. I would assume a lot of people don't associate gambling with religion so maybe they don't have anything to say about it either. It's an unusual topic but maybe someone will comment on it for you.

Would be interesting to see this topic get more answers, you get one Up from me 🌺

Not being religious either I can't help directly.

I've just noticed from my travels that for example Buddhism does not forbid many things in general, but gambling - especially if it turns into an addiction - falls into the "your next life is going to suck so much if you do it" category. So it is not perceived very well in general in Buddhist countries (many forbidding gambling by default as well so...)

Whereas in Western Europe with a kind of light non-practicing Christian cultural background I never perceived this kind of poor image of gambling at all.

I guess one of my biggest questions is if there is a disproportionate number non-believers / atheists that gamble compared to the general population. In other words, do religious people actually gamble less?

Just from my layman's point of view, without the support of any facts, I would be inclined to think that it might be so. People who are religious I think are more able to resist such things, and some religions like you mentioned are against gambling.But it can also depend individually on people who have nothing to do with religion. Sometimes the environment you're in, the people you meet, your personal characteristics and traits, and various other things can come into it.

However, I believe that people who are strongly religiously oriented avoid it much more and more successfully than those who don't recognize religion.🙂

It has a great impact, as in Malaysia casinos are illegal 🙁

Hi!

And where is the line with the subject of religion, please? 🙂 In any case, take Germany or the UK as an example, two almost top regulated countries, and at the same time, the number of players preferring off-shore casinos—thus locally "illegal" casinos are still increasing...

I think what Mega888FD is saying is that Malaysia is officially an Islamic State (with some Buddhist influence) ... and therefore it would make sense for that territory to outlaw gambling due to religious reasons.

Oh, that makes much better sense to me. Thank you for pointing me back in the right direction. Sadly, the person also tried to promote a casino the other day. What a sad coincidence. 🙁

Det är vad jag tycker om det. Men jag vill varna dig,

att jag förväntar mig roliga misstag

när Google översätter den här texten

från ryska till engelska. Och ämnet är allvarligt. Först, kortfattat huvudpunkterna, och sedan kan du

klargöra. Om kompatibilitet direkt

kasinon och religioner. På kasinon, som i skyttegravar (i krig) - det finns inga ateister. Vissa ropar till och med högt till Gud. Formellt

präster ogillar snarare

spelande. Det är bara inte givet till alla. Det finns många exempel i Skriften som om

ockulta aktiviteter: drömtydning, "lottkastning",

(Urim och Tummim, אוּרִים וְתֻמִּים‎)

förutsägelser...

En profetia är ett meddelande som innehåller information som tros tas emot som ett resultat av uppenbarelse eller under påverkan av en speciell INSPIRATION, och som regel innehåller en förutsägelse av framtida händelser. Oftast förstås profetior som uttalanden från profeter,
klärvoajanta INNAN händelsen inträffar.

Athanasius den store: "Gud blev människa så att människan kunde bli DEIFIERAD"

(θέωσις, gudomlighet)

Enligt Skriften (1 Kor. 12:7-10)

de värdiga uppenbarar den helige Andes gåvor - helande,
PROFETIA, urskiljning av andar, mirakel, tungotal

I vilket spel som helst, framförhållning

kommer att ge en betydande fördel. Tja, i blackjack

och i poker är det inte alltid mindre.

Ja, det går inte att vara kortfattad.

Detta är bara en introduktion.

För närvarande är huvudtanken: även in

Kristendomen kan motivera dig att arbeta med dig själv

och testa "helighetsnivån"

i procent 🙂 med hjälp av casinospel.

I andra trosriktningar, ibland allt

lättare. Yoga: Siddha, Tantra,

Taoism. Rungjutning i Nordeuropa, I Ching hexagram.

I allmänhet kan mycket sägas om detta

känner CasinoGuru själv från forumet,

den här mannen i en grön turban. :)

Jag kommer att avsluta med åsikten att framgång

uppnåtts med stor svårighet.

Detta är vad livsberättelserna om mästarna inom "fysiska metoder" säger,

sofistikerade matematiker och,

naturligtvis, The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, av Roald Dahl. 🙂

Det har stor inverkan på varför kasinon här alltid är fulla av kvinnor.

I'm not sure I really understand the meaning of this post, to tell you the truth.

Jag säger detta eftersom de flesta kvinnor jag känner som brukade tillbringa sin tid i kyrkor nu får sina män att gå till kasinon för dem. Det är inte för att förolämpa kvinnor utan för att jag såg en mycket ovanlig förändring här. Så min respekt till alla kvinnor eftersom det här med kasino handlar inte om kön och det är för alla som vill spela. Det är därför jag upprepar, jag sa det på grund av vad som händer här och jag ber om ursäkt om jag inte förklarade mig korrekt.

You're alright, no worries. I just didn't get it.

And it makes me think about it if it really is so, because, to tell you the truth, it sounds pretty exaggerated to me.

Well, I respect your opinion, of course, though.

That was an interesting question from the player. Do you think religion plays a role in gambling?

I discribe my personal situation. but I don't consider myself a deeply religious person who must observe all religious precepts. However, for such people who does, in my opinion, gambling is unacceptable, as are many other things that are prohibited in the holy scriptures. I am talking about Abrahamic religions such as Islam, Judaism, and Christianity.
