you say to us
if god does not exist yet i choose to believe i loose nothing,
but if he does exist and you choose not to believe you loose everything.
well there are a few things that you loose. first. this very theory by your own religion makes you a false prophet. you do not truly believe you only go through the motions out of fear. so you lie to yourself and to the god that you do not truly believe in. furthermore you lie to anyone that you tell about your supposed god. and these are all sins also so you may well be beside me in hell.
second. 2 hours every sunday.
52 times a year.
is just over 4 days a year.
X 80 years. equals 346 days. over a year of your life. wasted.
at 80 years old what would you give for one more year to spend with your grandkids?
and you say that we loose everything?
please explain how you can possibly believe this stupid wager?
not that your religion is wrong, just that this way of explaining it is so flawed.

Even if Christianity is not right, this does not mean you lose by going to Church. Christians' lives are usually enhanced by church-going. There, they get to sing songs that uplift them, hear a sermon which inspires them, and be with people they like. It's not really "losing."

If you say you believe "just to play it safe", then you gain nothing at all. God does not want false confessions of faith in Him. You either believe in Him with all your heart and truly repent, or don't even bother . Saying something doesn't make it real, and God knows the heart. Pascal's Wager benefits no one. (I am a Christian.)

The heart has reasons the mind knows not of. Your rationale is dependent on circular logic. All circles have a great big hole in the center.

I am a constant Liar, though I always tell the truth.
In my ignorance, I always show perfect intelligence.
Though I am no longer young, my whole life is ahead of me.
