This is a very good and socially relevant question. I will admit that I had/have a gambling problem with Texas hold 'em poker and blackjack. I used to have to travel 3 hours to go to Atlantic City New Jersey, but now there is a casino only 20 minutes away which I can play cards at obsessively (if I choose to). I can also play online of course too. I am pretty good at poker but I don't know when to stop. I almost always leave empty handed. The Bible SHOULD say something about the dangers of gambling but it doesn't. The bible is very bad literature anyway, so who gives a shit right? I know that a deck af cards has alot of "satanic" symbolism and alot of history concerning witchcraft and puritanical hedonism, but whatever, it is probably just a game of chance and probabilty, not fate.
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
