"Or Bill Bennett at the slot machines."
Man, is your magazine of valid arguments empty!

That was a bit of satire to show that for all of Bill's preaching about morals, he's committing what can be seen to be a sin against God in gambling. But FReepers are rushing to his side. I suppose some moralists are more equal than others.

"Committing what can be seen as a sin against God in gambling"? What the heck kind of church do you belong to? I strikes me you have taken about three steps beyond dementia here!

But, then again, I guess I am just a sinner for enjoying a pull or two at the EVILE slot machines! At least I don't associate with people whose poop doesn't smell...like you!

If that was satire...don't give up your day job!

Maybe Bennett is a hypocrite, but I don't believe gambling is necessarily a sin, not even at racetracks and casinos.

I must have missed that commandment... I don't claim to be a bible expert, but if the Bible says gambling is a sin against G-d, I've never seen or heard of it. If it is a sin, then there are an awful lot of churches that are encouraging sin with Bingo!
