betting is INVESTMENT.NEVER,NEVER a sin.everybody does it in the western world.
Because everyone does it in the western world doesn't make it not a sin. It is a sin because it advocates laziness and leads to animal cruelty and other various evils. If you want cash, work hard and it will come. | Posted: at 16-02-2009 07:35 AM (16 years ago) | Newbie | |

It sounds more reasonable if people invest their money in profitable business ventures rather that behaving irrational by gambling throwing off their money into the winds and watching if it will come back double. Betting is Ungodly and more of an irresponsible act. | Posted: at 29-03-2009 07:12 PM (16 years ago) | Newbie | |
