Not Pascal's Wager.
The most flawed argument, ever.
As others have already pointed out, there are many more than 2 sides. We could both end up in the hell of a god that neither of us believe exists.
From what I understand, Allah has a very special place in Jahannam for Christians, I'll wave to you as we're both having our flesh stripped by Iblis.
