Beware of Nun's that gamble. We had a tip on a horse a Nun gave us and the horse is still running.
When I read of priests and nuns getting caught up in the same compulsive and obsessive behaviours as other persons, I am saddened. In part, better systems of checks and balances within Church organizations should help diminish some such behaviours. I personally know well a lady who is married to a prominent lawyer and she compulsively gambled until they lost their expensive home. Her retired husband stayed with her and, although they now live much more simply, their marriage has deepened. We all need forgiveness and redemption and we all need to be sincerely repentant. In the Old Testament the standing of the Israelites as a nation before God was symbolized by the standing of their High Priest. If the High Priest sinned, he brought guilt on his whole nation. But if the High Priest were faultless, God would accept the nation, despite the sins of others. We now have in Jesus Christ a faithful high priest who is always pleasing to our God Father. Let’s live for Jesus whose sacrifice is more powerful than all our sins.
Hollywood must be on to this one.
"Aces and eights" are the "Dead Man's Hand". A marshall in Dodge City (famous) was shot in the back with these cards on the table. In addition, it is stated that all of this money was gambled away. There are similar charges against a priest in New Jersey. If you do the math as with the priest, there is a great deal of money gambled away on a daily average basis. (Not realistic) This is to insure that there will be no investigation and the books are balanced and a payment of 500K came from the insurance company. There could be a slush fund being established. She did not gamble all of this money away. There is not enough chip space in a nun's uniform.
sick ass sis
wow, this Nun was goin 4 it. Always split Aces & 8's Sister.
