Pascal's Wager Is a High Pressure Sales Pitch

[CloudWatcher]

1. "... if God doesn't exist, you lose nothing"

And I'll also disagree with this part of the wager.

If you pretend to believe, you are going to spend your time and energy in ways that don't make sense.

You'll lose the right to make your own decisions about what is moral.

You'll lose the focus that you must make the most of your time here, because you don't have any expectations of an afterlife.

You'll feel compelled to help others because it's the right thing to do, and not have the comforting "oh, it's god's will [that they suffer]" and "god works in mysterious ways" BS that lets you ignore suffering.

I could go on, but I hope I've made my point. We've got one life and we shouldn't waste a minute of it.
