Isn't gambling bad? Why is that in heaven?

The Good Place Season 1 Spoilers
Could it be... that...
THIS
IS
THE BAD PLACE!

Gambling is bad because of the consequences of gambling when you have finite resources to lose. I assume that any form of heaven is post-scarcity so betting is done just for recreational purposes.
It's wild to me that people think heaven is like earth but nice
There's as much evidence of that as for any other idea of heaven or the existence of an heaven at all
Except that we all know what the believers in heaven are like, and if they actually got in they'd ruin the place.
Similar to how they think god is like a father or king but nice, plus obviously the smartest and strongest and best at everything and can totally beat up YOUR dad?
One could argue that any form of addiction ought to be avoided on principle if your goal is to remain βpureβ
Look, all I'm saying is: if Jesus died for our sins and you aren't committing any, then I guess I just want to know why you insist on making his death be in vain? I mean, I know if I was to go through a whole ass crucifixion and everything I would like to think it was at least worth it
Man I called that, along with probably a ton of others, from the very first episode. Still, the writers did such a good job with it I was not disappointed that the very obvious twist indeed was the twist.
Also for some reason, not sure if it's just my app (Sync) but your spoiler tags didn't work right. Idk why you have >!spoiler and not just >! Like if it's my app making it display wrong or that breaks the tag beats me.
Could also, maybe more likely, be the end tag being --!< That might fuck up the syntax.
I use Sync, and have learned that our spoilers don't work for other users and their spoilers don't work for us.
That's kind of wild I wonder what is going on in the code for that to be the case. I don't know how that works under the hood as far as that goes.
