Gambling is bad because of the consequences of gambling when you have finite resources to lose. I assume that any form of heaven is post-scarcity so betting is done just for recreational purposes.

One could argue that any form of addiction ought to be avoided on principle if your goal is to remain “pure”

Look, all I'm saying is: if Jesus died for our sins and you aren't committing any, then I guess I just want to know why you insist on making his death be in vain? I mean, I know if I was to go through a whole ass crucifixion and everything I would like to think it was at least worth it

It's wild to me that people think heaven is like earth but nice

There's as much evidence of that as for any other idea of heaven or the existence of an heaven at all

Except that we all know what the believers in heaven are like, and if they actually got in they'd ruin the place.

Similar to how they think god is like a father or king but nice, plus obviously the smartest and strongest and best at everything and can totally beat up YOUR dad?
