I'd like to meet:
Pascal Wager! "God is, or he is not. Which way should we incline? Reason cannot answer.""Sometimes we make decisions on the basis of past experience, out of experiments we or others have conducted in the course of our lifetime. But we cannot conduct experiments that will prove either the existence or the absence of God. Our only alternative is to explore the future consequences of believing in God or rejecting God. Nor can we avert the issue, for by the mere act of living we are forced to play this game. Pascal explained that belief in God is not a decision. You cannot awaken one morning and declare, 'Today i think i will decide to believe in God.' You believe or you do not believe. The decision, therefore, is whether to choose to act in a manner that will lead to believing in God, like living with pious people and following a life of 'holy water and sacraments.' The person who follows these precepts is wagering that God is. The person who cannot be bothered with that kind of thing is wagering that God is not.
The only way to choose between a bet that God exists and a bet that there is no God down that infinite of Pascal's coin-tossing game is to decide whether an outcome in which God exists is preferable-more valuable in some sense- than an outcome in which God does not exist, even though the probability may be only 50-50. This insight is what conducts Pascal doen the path to a decision- a choice in which the value of the outcome and the likelihood that it may occur will differ because the consequences of the two outcomes differ.
If God is not, whether you lead your life piously or sinfully is immaterial. But suppose God is. The if you bet against the existence of God by refusing to live a life of piety and sacraments you run the risk of eternal damnation; the winner of the bet that God exists has the possibility of salvation. As salvation is clearly preferable to eternal damnation, the correct decision is to act on the basis that God is. 'Which way should we incline?" The anwer was obvious to Pascal."- Against the God, The Remarkable story of Risk by Peter L. Bernstein
