    Education is where they told ky the lottery money was going more then 20 yrs ago too when we first got lottery, and they held true, and started giving a small percentage to education last yr.
    That money never goes where they tell you will, when they used ti to talk you into voting for it.

    No.

    When I was a new believe, I went to lunch with a co-worker and she urged me to buy a lottery ticket. I was reluctant but did it as I could not come up with a reason not to, although I felt uncomfortable.

    So she showed me how to pick numbers and I bought the ticket (or whatever you call it). After I did it, I was overwhelmed with a sense of guilt (this would not have been true before I was saved). I actually prayed that I would not win! Well, God answered that prayer!
