I started nothing.

Pascal's wager is stupid.

EDIT: I believe the original Pascal's Wager drinking game was started by bettierage. I wrote the formal rules though. Which have long been forgotten...

Pascal's wager is a stupid argument for belief in god (not really for the existence of god, but for the belief REGARDLESS of existence).
Thanks for the excuse to drink...

A diligent coworker used an analogous argument with me. He shared the gospel with me after artwork and asked me if i had to obtain Jesus as my Savior. I advised him that i did no longer have faith in God and he persevered to witness to me anyhow. He asked back and after i found out that he would not quit, I advised him that i wished to wish approximately it first. i presumed that this might fulfill him and get him off my decrease back. He persevered and made me an furnish that i could no longer refuse. He stated that if I prayed the salvation prayer with him and if he replaced into perfect, i might benefit eternal existence, and he proceeded that if i replaced into perfect, I in basic terms wasted a couple of minutes of my existence. I did have a while and the furnish replaced into too impossible to resist. in basic terms a fool might refuse. I did the prayer even regardless of the indisputable fact that i did no longer have faith in it. Afterwards, God proved to me that He replaced into genuine and that i'm very grateful that Christian did no longer enable me bypass. we could desire to furnish God the authority to show up Himself in our lives previously we are able to confirm Him because of the fact devil is the god of this international and he blinds people who're his, to the actuality.
