Its glorification of mere chance is a denial of the Divine order of nature.

The persistent appeal to covetousness is fundamentally opposed to the unselfishness which was taught by Jesus Christ and by the New Testament as a whole. The attempt (which is inseparable from gambling) to make a profit out of the inevitable loss and possible suffering of others is the antithesis of that love of one's neighbour on which our Lord insisted.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7115</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4313]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By nature's kindly disposition most questions which it is beyond a man's power to answer do not occur to him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52723]]></link><description><![CDATA[By nature's kindly disposition most questions which it is beyond a man's power to answer do not occur to him at all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52723</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This victory will be your I ruin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50788]]></link><description><![CDATA[This victory will be your I ruin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50788</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All we lacked was a goal.
