There are some religions that have strict views on gambling, some considering it morally wrong. However, people still gamble for various reasons.
Have you ever faced any conflicts between your religious beliefs versus gambling? How it happen and how did you handle it?
How do different religions view gambling? What could be the reasons behind it?
For me it's just that a moral standard that I need not to violate. I view gambling not as gambling but as risk taking opportunity. It only becomes gambling to me in a negative point of view when I become fully degenerate, not follow my rules, and just foolishly act upon my impulses and emotion. It's a signal for me that I am doing the wrong thing.
But when I follow my rules, that I remain in control of my actions and decisions. I even feel like God is guiding me to take the risk. (Don't get me wrong). It think it's bad when you constantly put yourself in that position, not take accountability, and blame your beliefs and other people from your own actions.
Gambling is definitely high risk but some people think of this risk as gambling addiction. Day by day gambling is increasing so much especially the youth are getting addicted to gambling, once they become addicted to gambling they cannot come out easily. Once they win money by gambling for fun then greed nests in them then they double bet to get double amount of money sometimes if luck is good they can make money from gambling or sometimes if luck is bad they external double amount of money. Return home empty handed. There are many gambling addicts who regularly gamble and make huge amounts of money, so it is not right to get into such debt, of course everyone should take a break from such so that he can live well with his family members.
