I do not play the lottery, nor do I condone playing it. But..... I do benefit from it in the form of an annual Property Tax/Rent Rebate (for the elderly & disabled) which is funded by the PA Lottery.

My brother won $11,000 playing the lottery last year, but I know he also puts a lot back into it.

Glad to see the consitency :thumb

As for the testimony thing, imo going to an arcade is a bad testimony also. Not only is the language awful, but the music is sooo bad too. I hate walking by there in the mall.

I don't play the lottery, only because the odds of winning are so bad. I think they're exploitive in general.

I will gamble - 21 tournaments, Omaha poker and the sort, but that's just for recreation. If I thought it would become a problem, I'd stop.

Very true, of course with "arcade" that can include anything from a true arcade to Chuck E. Cheese's, etc.

I simply feel that gambling, lottery, poker, and such like are worldly and we are not to love the world...there's a seperation issue there that I don't feel God wants me to cross.

Not to mention unless you are super lucky, its a stupid way to spend money. haha.
