Episode Description from the Publisher

The internet didn’t invent sin, but it did put it in your pocket. Porn and online gambling exploded together. Same covetousness. Same liturgy. Gambling is gay economics. Fruitless risk without work. Legalized covetousness and theft, packaged as entertainment. The house always wins. The system is hard‑wired to strip wealth from fools. Our fathers banned gaming houses, disciplined gamblers, and called it theft in public. We legalized it. Lotteries as “voluntary taxation.” Casinos as “jobs.” Sports betting in every game break. Bankruptcies. Broken marriages. Domestic violence. Addiction. Suicide. A slot machine in every pocket. A nation catechized into random luck instead of providence. Chance instead of covenant. Gambling is economic sodomy. It does not build homes. It does not strengthen families. It does not bless nations. It trains men to seek gain without work. Now the question is: How does a nation crawl out of such a deep pit?
