No.

Yes, the bible forbids it.

decisions have consequences.

No. It's good to weed idiots out of wealth.
It also adds spice to sporting events

muh theocracy

really now

Of course not.
Where? And, hell, they threw dice to choose Judas' replacement. It can't be too bad if it's good enough for something so important.

No.

Literally one of the easiest ways for a government to make money off of people believing in shit as stupid as "winning the jackpot".

When you go to a casino you're agreeing to their conditions, and that includes accepting odds as horrible as 1:10e100.

No. Every single decision you make is a gamble. Other people wanting to increase their risks isn't anyone else's business.

yes

What's wrong, dens of filthy underhanded cons and unfair odds run as fronts for shady criminal organizations feels too much like cultural appropriation?

>Should this thing I personally don't like be illegal?

Liberal crybaby confirmed. Why do you hate freedom?

>he's never read Proverbs

>Muslims are a backwards group for making their laws based on their religion

>bible says no, let's outlaw it

>When you go to a casino you're agreeing to their conditions, and that includes accepting odds as horrible as 1:10e100.

There are laws about casino odds in most places

There aren't any laws about how rare your flag is nigga damn.

Also, laws about odds in casinos are fine and logical. If someone accepts the premises of gambling then it's their own damn fault for burning all the money.

Are there any reasons for it to be illegal?

Online gambling should be illegal

shit is like 20x more rigged

also the pseudo gambling in video games should be banned

>tfw you will never win the big cash

>Online gambling should be illegal
You can have my online poker when you pry it from my cold, dead laptop.

No.

It's immoral, stupid, wrong and I personally never do it but it's someone's earned wages they're pissing away on a dream and it is their right to do so if they want.

Also a cheeky wager among spirited mates is endless fun.

It's mostly run by Jews so yes

I've got a fiver on Britain leaving, so I'm counting on you to do you part.

If we banned everything run by jews, nothing would be legal anymore.

No. Stop banning things you retards.

please be nibs

I will give a thousand dollars to anyone who can show me where the bible specifically forbids gambling

Pro-tip: you can't

>inb4 all love of money is a sin

I'm not sure why you replied to me, but I need you to vote for Brexit too.

I agree with this. CSGO encourages underage gambling.

The old testament has a story in it where the lord rewards the man who invested his shekels with more shekels while not giving the man who kept his shekel anything.

Casinos pay back at a rate of 87%.

Slowly, at this rate, you begin losing money, but there is a chacne to win a jackpot.

I work at a casino and people win jackpots every single day.

This, the Bible clearly favors intelligent risk management over straightforward saving. A major theme is that this world is a slanted world, and if you want three cents you ask for five.

Of course, since you work there you will frequently see the jackpot.

I visit maybe once in 4 years time, and statistically its certain I won't see the jackpot.

Also you will need a [citation] on that payback rate.

No, if stupid people want to test their "luck" let them
