In the upcoming Municipal Election Oct. 27, brother Knights will be asked if they favour a casino coming to our community. Please consider these documents when you vote.
Catechism
of the Catholic Church:
Quote:
2413
Games of chance (card games, etc.) or wagers are not in themselves contrary
to justice. They become morally unacceptable when they deprive someone of
what is necessary to provide for his needs and those of others. The passion
for gambling risks becoming an enslavement. Unfair wagers and cheating at
games constitute grave matter, unless the damage inflicted is so slight that
the one who suffers it cannot reasonably consider it significant.
