30-Jul-06. Church leaders confront gambling morality debate. Calgary Herald, B6.

This article reports that the morality debate over using dollars from casinos, lottery tickets and bingos to do good works has never been more intense. According to Ernie McCullough, a philosophy professor at St. Mary’s University College in Calgary, the central issue in both a secular morality and a faith-centred morality is the notion of virtue. The gambling morality debate became front-page news in Calgary this spring with the rift between Catholic Bishop Fred Henry and the city’s Catholic school board.
