To: Revelation 911
Last time I checked, nowhere does the Bible call gambling a sin. Of course, most Bible thumpers'll tell you drinking's a sin, even though wine was quite common in Biblical times (Jesus even whipped up a batch, himself), or that dancing's a sin, or even wearing jewelry. Unfortunately, this is merely projection on the part of those who wish to make this life as miserable as possible for as many people as possible. God forbid someone should enjoy himself.

In mortal sin, yes

Matthew 19:24

Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
