RELIGION AND GAMBLING
Sažetak
This work analyses different aspects of the relationship between religion and gambling. In the first part the relation between Christian religion and gambling is discussed within historical context. Some of the basic religious texts are analyzed in two respects - relation toward gamboling and relation toward money acquisition. Alongside this, an attempt is made at determining main topics in Christian critique of gambling. The work also consists of comparative examinations between Protestant and Catholic attitudes to gambling. In an attempt to determine some basic factors of influence on gambling, second part of the work analyses catechisms of religious institutions in our area, most important regulations from Canon law, parts from the religious press, papal encyclicals, as well as the attitudes of the Catholic church in our area, on gamble and gambling. In the concluding part we offer possibilities of further development of the relation between religion and gambling.
