    I dont know where this stuffed shirt got his information. In minnesota there were no casinos 30 years ago. now there are more than thirty. Increased exposure to gambling has brought increased numbers of gambling addicts. there are at least 80,000 gambling addicts in minnesota alone. but that wouldn’t have anything to do with the incresed exposure to gambling, would it howie? educated idiots!!!

    O ye who believe! Intoxicants and gambling, (dedication of) stones, and (divination by) arrows, r an abomination, of Satan’s handwork: eschew such (abomination), that ye may prosper.
    Satan’s plan is (but) to excite enmity n hatred between you, with intoxicants n gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of Allah, and from prayer: will ye not then abstain? Quran 5: 90-91

    The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said “Whatever intoxicates in a greater quantity is also unlawful in a small quantity.”

    Gambling should be banned worldwide. The people who run casinos are vermin of the lowest order. Why don’t these “people” learn what it means to earn an honest living and do something constructive?

    Good day to all of my fellow Christians, firstly my apology for being out of topic. I came here to remind you people that the judgment day has been starting already. I urge you my fellow Christians to depart from all form of unchristian conduct lest you be found not worthy to inter the kingdom of God in the Day of Execution. Please do not misinterpret my activity as spam; I did not do it for that purpose.
