No, but I do use the term, "Oh my god" because it is a generic staple of phrase in the English language.

No, Pascal's wager describes why this is an awful idea.
 

Wait, I think you are misinterpreting Pascal's wager. It says that a a person who believes when there is no god will only have a finite loss, whereas a person who doesn't believe when there is will have an infinite loss.

I...don't not believe? I waver between agnostic and very eclectic pagan.

But dude, I told you what it's about. I told you exactly what it says, and you... ignored it? I don't know. You tell me. 

 

Pascal's Wager is what you stated earlier: "Wouldn't it make more sense to live as though the God of the Bible does exist?"

 

I'll choose to ignore this blatant ad hominem and instead counter with a challenge: I dare you to have 0 sex -- no "2nd base", no "3rd base"; only kissing -- until you're married.

If you're not married to that person, the only thing you're allowed to do is kiss them.

It's a very tough challenge, and not one that *anyone* should want to complete. Would you buy a car without test driving it? No? Then why would you say "I want to be with this person forever" (but let's be real here, "forever" means <10 years; until you're divorced) yet have no idea what how well they "drive"?

 

Good points bro!
