8. it cuts into bingo profits
christians do not oppose gambling, the catholic church says outright that gambling for entertainment that does not cause financial harm to self or family is no different from any other hobby you would spend money on

with the really shrill anti-gambling xtians, dig deeper, you will learn they fear a cut in their bingo profits when casino gambling -- which provides REAL entertainment in a NICE environment w. cocktails, shows, and restaurants, instead of a dirty tired old hall full of discouraged old ppl -- well bingo just can't compete w. the casino

the sin is the sin of being able to out-perform the church bingo hall in the free market
