I've always wondered how many atheists convert and believe in God at the last minute on their deathbed, when the nothingness they espouse is looming before them all too closely. How many people think that Paschal's Wager starts to look pretty good to them in the last moments of life?

A rare few. Most were the "angry at God" types, religious until an event. Mostly, it is a Christian lie, like Darwin's renunciation.

This whole assumption is based on the Christian god being the only god. There is no logic in believing that the Christian god or the Christian heaven is any more attractive than any other god or any other heaven.
Besides, I dare say, many Christians wonder if they have made the right choice.

It's Pascal's Wager, not Paschal.
Not many atheists actually do that, because your god has no more chance than any other god out there.

This is not too silly of a waste of time on your part. Do you devote hours each day to this question of yours? You probably think that the percentage is high.

Just ask Charles Darwin - Lol he said on his deathbed some things he come up with were ''utter rubbish''

Atheists don't suffer from the same delusional fear as you and they are too intelligent to consider Pascal's wager.
