I think living your life believing there is a god who will send you to heaven and hell when you die is a gamble.

Like fcuk every person who has ever lived ever is roaming around somewhere, must be the most overcrowded stinking place about. Unless ghosts don't sweat.

Do ghosts sweat?

No because you havent spent any money?

Same applies if someone gave you a scratch card for free. Whether you win or not you havent actually gambled any money in the first place.

no its not. gambling is putting in an investment with the chance of seeing back a bigger return or loosing it all. If you didn't buy it then its not gambling.

Hmm, this is true.
I basically hand out £10 and £5 sc's as prizes.
There's no loss associated with the potential gain, is there?

I think the person taking offence is being silly and playing the race card for the sake of it.

You gave someone a scratch card for free and they're complaining?

Take it off them and scratch it off in their face, and multiply any win by the satisfaction of seeing their face when its yours.

Offended by being given something indeed. How ridiculous.

Robin, this is true. As much as we vet our people we struggle at times to ensure they can comprehend simple things in life.

They hit a target and get issued a sc.
I furthered my side of things against a claim of having the assistant scratch it along with their own, but they take a cut of the winnings.

Madness do you want it or not?

It's not gambling, but It's probably against Sharia beliefs.

Just respond to this with:

Dinosaurs, evolution, carbon dating, science, Sumerians beliefs, Islam, Hinduism, +any other religion.

And ask if the flood in England where down to extraordinary levels of rain in a short period that overwhelmed inadequate flood defences. Or was god angry because gays can marry?

Isn't this to do with them not wanting to support gambling though, if they scratch the card they are involving themselves in something they [are told] do not believe in.
