I like your way of thinking. Yes, in this context, I don't think any religion condones gambling. Humans have free will and are free to determine their own lives. However, within each religion, there are rules that must not be violated. As far as I recall, gambling is prohibited in every religion, so I would never condone gambling. If a country's government adopts the rules of the majority religion as new law, I believe that is a democratic decision. Of course, everyone will have different opinions. But I believe that rules made based on the majority are wise. I mean, it's impossible for the government to base a law on the wishes of a small minority. I believe we need to respect a country's laws. However, if a proposed law hasn't been passed, I believe those who disagree can still appeal to find another solution.
Yes and more importantly I think that we should respect the culture or religion of every society.
Gambling is just a source of entertainment, and it is not right to expect that it will be inputted into the culture of every society or give legitimacy to it.
Maybe this culture is legal in Western countries but wherever this culture is not legalized there is no need to conflict with them. I personally would say that it is enough for anyone to respect their culture.
