How many times have you won?
Who plays the lottery, and why: Updated collection of research
2016 review of the research literature on U.S. lotteries and the types of people most likely to play.journalistsresource.org
I've been playing for about 4 years regularly and I've won 5 times ($500), 6 if you count the 5 grand I won playing Cash 4. I know you're trying to belittle and insult.. I know its wasting money, but its for fun, man.
I dont belittle anyone for anything everyone has habits I smoke like a chimney and drink like a fish. You can say I am wasting money on my habits. I say to each their own.
It’s against baptist religion to gamble, drink, or smoke.
You don't know anything about my religion.
If Baptist I know quite a bit,
actually.

I believe that Jesus Christ died to save our souls.. whether we buy lotto tickets or not. He loves you.. and you don't need any superstitious trinkets to feel his love.
Any snakes involved ?
There is only one religion directly related to Christ and started by one of the apostles. Check into that.
My grandfather had his oddities seamlessly woven into his character. We would be driving down a street, and if a woman was walking on the adjacent sidewalk, he'd call out "Hey Betty" and give her a big wave. On trips if someone in front of him got off the expressway, he would follow suit. And when the fall came he'd pick up a half-dozen buckeyes and make sure I had some. I'd always ask to see his buckeye that he had been carrying for years.
I used to carry around a blond in short shorts for luck, but I kept being followed by creepy dudes and eventually threw my back out. Haven’t carried around anything for luck since....No, but I am going to follow this thread like a blond in short shorts, because I am fascinated in this type of stuff, people's beliefs, superstitions and such.
Handling snakes as proof of faith rests on two characteristics: ignorance and stupidity.
I have the original, bulkier version. Stays in the boat, almost 20 years old now. Great tool.
I have lucky hats. They’re lucky because I like them.
Milwaukee fastback razor is always clipped in my right pocket. I rarely leave the house without it.
As far as talismans go, I do pick up a penny from the ground, as long as it’s heads-up, and chant the “find a penny” rhyme in my head. Always. The penny goes in my back, left pocket. The luck it brings may be small enough to go unnoticed, I tell myself, but what if I hadn’t picked it up? What disaster have I avoided? There is no rational reason for any of this, yet I persist.
I also keep small items left over from my dad who passed in 2011. They don’t necessarily bring me any luck, but they feel like they do. His last Canadian fishing license, a bottle of nasty aftershave in the center console of my car, some flies he tied are stuck in random places about the house, one in the visor of my car and my girlfriend’s.
My guitar cases are filled with random things collected from gigs. Pens, a little scuba diver figure, cigarette butts, coins. They stay in there for reasons I can’t explain but they must stay or else.

I believed Trump's lies?
Check the rule book, Pal. Political comments are not allowed.
Straying off topic is also a major no no. Can't you see that we're arguing about religion over here!
