In my opinion, the only time going to a casino, playing bingo, buying lottery tickets could be said to be wrong is if you are using money better spent on family or kids. Are you buying lottery tickets instead of doing your best to keep them fed? I do not believe the risk of available money that could feed your family or pay bills on the off chance that you might win is something that is a good thing to do.
I spend about a dollar or two every month on the powerball, I waste more on that buying pop at work, so in reality, the pop I drink is probably in the long term unhealthy for me and it's probably worse than buying a couple of powerball tickets every month.
Keep playing the pwerball, but God told me that if you win and don't give me half you'll burn in hell.
Some smileys so you know I am kidding.
