Actually, in religion, gambling, alcohol and adultery are prohibited. <...>

Actually, it depends on which religion you are talking about. As you mentioned alcohol, I assume you are referring to Islam. There are many other religions in the world and not all religions follow the same rules. For example, I am a Christian and I follow the rules of the Bible, not the rules of the Quran.

But the Bible also doesn't recommend drinking alcohol, right? So basically, all religious teachings do not encourage or may prohibit things like alcohol, gambling, adultery and others through their religious teachings. And we follow the rules that apply according to the teachings of our religion.

No one cares about religion here, religion had done plenty of havoc to us than good mate. I think gambling and drinking of alcohol started from the beginning and we are not left out. We gamble to make more funds and for the fun so if you think religion do not support that then maybe we have to restructure the way we gamble. Gambling is not bad and we should not discriminate it because of our faith.

I agree that gambling in its nature isn't bad, even leaders of a religious group in ancient times throw lots to arrive at a decision. That includes punishment, land division, and something that the tribe leader can't decide. It is excessive gambling that leads to sin is forbidden so gambling in moderation that does not lead to sin is ok, IMO. It goes the same with food - gluttony is a sin, money - greed is a sin, desire - lust is a sin, and the rest of the 7 deadly sins.
