Mrs. Rogers, I might not know what your baptist church is like but like most other baptist churches, mine doesn't support the lottery. If you remember the passages of Matthew, the Roman Soldiers gambled for Jesus's clothes. The lottery is gambling and not good. It can become an addiction and I'm pretty sure it is one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

And exactly which verses detail these "sevsen deadly sins" may I ask? Chapter and verse, please.

So where does it say that Gambling is against God? Do you know how often the "good guys" in the Bible cast lots?

Numbers 26:55 Notwithstanding the land shall be divided by lot: according to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit.

Joshua 14:2 By lot was their inheritance, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half tribe.

Joshua 18:6 Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.

Acts 1:23-26 And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen, That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place. And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

1 Corinthians 26:13 And they cast lots, as well the small as the great, according to the house of their fathers, for every gate.

As for the seven deadly sins, they are not mentioned anywhere in the Bible and are a Catholic invention. So a dedicated catholic like yourself should know that they are wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony. So nope, no gambling. It's a good thing too, considering how much Bingo goes on in Catholic church basements.

Oh, and hey, welcome back to the conversation. 3 days of rambling was getting rather tedious.

Are you sure on this. There are some verses in the Bible about lotteries.

Nehemiah 10:34 And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, after the houses of our fathers, at times appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the law:

I do believe in God, but God didn't write the bible. He performed the miracles and said the things that are in the bible. But, as for writing it that's not true. Still, God is the only one for me.

1. God wrote the Bible. Therefore, God exists.
2. I also know that God exists because, well, I can feel that he exists.
3. Everything must have a fundamental. That fundamental being God of course.
4. Even though there has been no miracles happen recently to prove Gods existence, they have happened in the past. It's in the Bible.
5. Though scientists have proven that the universe does not necessarily need a creator to exist, I know that God created everything. Why? Because it's written in the holy book itself.
6. The only thing that can exist without being created, well that happens to be God.
7. Indisputably, prayer has a 100% success rate.
8. Everything in the world is proof of God's creation. Simply, because it's here.
9. Because it feels better to know that God exists, than he must exist.
10. And because these things cannot be proven wrong, than we Christians must be right!

So day 4 of your rambling and you can't even tell us if God wrote the Bible or not. Well which one is it?

If anyone is the atheist around here, I'm pretty sure it's you. I think this insanity thing you have going on is because you're in over your head and didn't think we knew our Bible. Pretty silly attitude coming onto a True Christian(TM) board.
