Sometimes decisions are more logical than moral.
Tonight my small group leaders decided they wanted to play poker. Everyone has to cough up $2 to put in the pot. I’m not sure how I feel about this.
I have no objection to gambling on religious grounds. There’s nothing in scripture for or against it. I simply object to it on a purely logical basis:
- If it isn’t reasonably certain,
it’s a stupid decision. - If it is reasonably certain,
yet the other party doesn’t recognize this,
you’re preying on the stupid,
so it’s a moral decision.
(Basically immoral.)
Sometimes I’m just too logical for my own good.
