Is gambling wrong in and of its self?

That's between him and the Lord but, sadly, he is guilty of not abstaining from the appearance of evil.

How is that? Gambling with money that you can not afford to lose is wrong. Gambling addiction is wrong. I'm not buying that gambling, in and of itself, is giving the appearance of evil. Does everyone who has a drink giving the appearance of evil? If I go to Krispy Kreme am I giving the appearance of evil to some glutton?
