Well, Wendy, first of all my response was largely tongue-in-cheek (I do have a really dry sense of humor).
I believe self-interest is good (it's in our genes so we can survive!) and if the 'real world' casinos won this game, then they are just what one would call the winner now aren't they?
But who knows how easy it was for under age kids to get a hold of a credit card and gamble it away?
I assume, by the way, that since you are obviously so against Christians as well as our Republican Party here in America, that you have a dog in our fight?
