There was another thread on this last night where a FReeper (to go unnamed) sounded so envious and smug... it was very un-Christian sounding - he saw every bad thing that could result from the donation - like a DARK light at the end of a tunnel. I know gambling can be an additction, but so can drink - which Christ took occasionally. And no where in the Bible do I see NO dancing or music... although some Christian sects have preached that. Seems like a lot of envy and anger to me which is very unbecoming and not terribly Christian IMHO

Gambling is a problem for a lot of people...so is over-eating,drink..... so is envy, anger,unforgiveness.

How many times do we as Christians focus on single outward trangressions of others while we ignore the anger and hate in our own hearts. Hence the saying of Jesus:"Ye strain at gnats and swallow camels!"
