No. By your behavior of casually making light of it, you show that you don't take it seriously that gambling is sinful.
How is a rhetorical statement making light of gambling? Just because it does it in a different way than you would? Because I don't rant and rave about it?
Let me tell you another story about myself. When I was in the first grade my old man was a Parchesi fanatic. He'd been reading about how evil gambling is so he comes out one night with a spinner and tells us we re not going to play with dice anymore because that was gambling. In his defense he had learned to speak English when he started school and had not gotten past the eighth grade because he had to go to work to support his family as both his parents were alkies.
I objected because 7s, 11s, and doubles were an integral part of the game. I told him I was no longer interested in playing because it wasn't going to be fun any more. He said, you're going to play. I said no I'm not. He started getting mad at what he saw as intransigence on my part and pretty soon he put me over his knew and spanked me. I still said no. so he spanked me a few more times and then went and got his favorite belt. It was made of metal and very flexible and only about 3/8ths of an inch wide. He used that on me and then asked me if I was going to play. I was standing there crying in frustration and rage and yelled NO. He used it on my again and asked one more time. I still refused so he took me over to the door of the trailer we lived in and shoved me outside after telling me I was spending the night outside.
That trailer had a wrinkled glass window in the door and I could see the shadow of him standing there but I was so full of rage I didn't care. I stood there and screamed at him that I hated him again and again and again. He finally opened the door and asked, what did you say? I realized I'd get whipped half to death if I told him I hated him again so I said nothing. He laughed and closed the door. His only purpose was to humiliate me.
I tell you that story to demonstrate how important truth is to me. You can believe or disbelieve it, it really doesn't matter to me, but it was important to me that you know. So mock me all you wish it just doesn't matter to me as I've been through far worse than anything you can do to me. My old man treated me like that until I got married at 28.
