We already have gambling with the Lotto and Bingo parlors. So what is the big deal? As far as, Baptist are concerned I think that you would surprised at the number who make regular trips to our neighboring states to participate in the activities. Jesus did not try to make laws or force folks to follow him and his beliefs. He educated and allowed people to use their choice as a guide to his teachings. You cannot make people worship and I suggest you would be better to use your time spreading the gospel instead of lobbying to change laws.
