If you're right and I'm wrong, then I'm stareing at the TV for an hour and I've lost nothing.
If I'm right, I just watched Star Trek for an hour.
If I'm right and you're wrong, you didn't watch Star Trek,
What have you got to lose?

But what if I am devoted to the show, but for some reason failed to watch it when you did ... is that a sinful act?
Too, I know many facts about Star Trek, such as James Kirk's middle name, Mr. Spok's blood type, his Mother's name and on and on. would that make me a "trek theologian"?
Many questions .... little time. So sad.

You can never go wrong watching "Trek." Some of the lessons one can learn from the shows are far more valuable than those taught by religions.
Seek out new life and new civilizations.
Non-interference is the prime directive.
Keep your phaser set on stun.
Humans are highly illogical.
Live long and prosper.
Having is not so pleasing as wanting; it is highly illogical, but often true.
Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations.
Enemies are often invisible--like Klingons and Romulans, they can be cloaked.
When your logic fails, trust a hunch.
Even on our own world, sometimes we are alien.
There is no such thing as a Vulcan Death Grip.

What if I watched Star Trek, but spent the hour pointing out all the scientific impossibilities.
Would I still lose?

I got over Star Trek when I was 12 -- I've moved on, but I don't look down on anyone who still likes to watch it!

Have you made the holy pigrimage to Las Vegas for Star Trek: The Experience? How can you count yourself among the faithful unless you have?

I'd have to give up an hour of my life to watch Star Trek.
Nuff said.

Come on, Jim, you still can't "Wager" me into watching Star Trek. It's a decision I need to make on my own.

I've noticed that you put the letter "e" in a lot of words where that letter does not belong.
stareing, for example.
it's staring.
just an observation, I get a bit distracted when I see such obvious spelling and grammatical errors.
I'd rather watch Monty Python any day.

Do not use a modified version of pascals wager here, too smart for that nonsense.
Pascal's Wager
The argument that believing in God is the most logical thing to do since if there is a God and you deny him, then you are in trouble. If there is no god and you accept him, there is no problem because it doesn't matter. Logically, it is better to not deny that God exists than to deny he does. There is truth to this argument, but the problem is that it does not define which "god" to believe in since in many religions, believing in a different god brings a punishing judgment. Nevertheless, this does not excuse a person from at least trying to discover if there is a God or not and who He might be.
