IMO, gambling does not correlate with other aspects of our lives. I may have financial discipline when gambling, but wont discipline myself when I go out to drink, smoke, or club. It will take someone who is well-disciplined in general to control their emotions in everything they do. Many gambling stories we have heard tell us of how gambling affects people differently, especially the one of a preacher, even with the discipline of the gospel would act differently when it comes to gambling.
