Let what I have to say here be a warning, though I myself of course have no authority over anyone. However, I say the following based on an understanding of ancient tradition that applies especially to our day, and here and now. What I have to say is the following:
Anyone who works towards this end of building a casino is nothing less of a short-sighted, evil-doer. To profit off of the suffering of individuals is nothing short of evil, and those who do so need to remember they will face their Lord and have to answer for their deeds. I advise you and myself to fear God, to be conscientious of the Creator and Sustainer of us and the entire universe. Do not spread corruption on the earth. Do not make it easy for people to destroy themselves, through enabling addiction. Do not make it easy through the making of a casino for people to distract themselves from greater things, to prevent them from reaching their full potential in life.
No one ever engages in any wrong action, such as gambling, or becoming intoxicated, except that it harms their own soul/ psyche, and has a ripple effect on those around them. Ultimately, everyone ends up paying for this, whether through more taxes due to increased need for health care or social service programs or through crime and victimization.
I advise you to not prey on people. Do not kill individuals, families, and communities by promoting this kind of so-called entertainment in which the majority of people suffer and only a few make 'profit'. But if only those who profit from such evil knew, and they will soon come to know, that such 'profit' will not be of any benefit to them in front of God, but instead it will be the cause of their regret and misery. They engage in a foolish trade indeed. Please, take heed, for yourselves, and for your own offspring, before it is too late.
It is said that if it were not for the animals, God would prevent the rain from falling due to the sins of mankind. Who can be so sure that God might not send us a storm so great so as to render such 'development' into nothing but regret? Be mindful of the Creator and Sustainer of the earth. For those who may scoff/ ridicule at this message, know that you will have no excuse before your Maker that you were not warned.
May God's peace be with all of you.
