Nah, I hope that I'm wrong. I love being wrong! Doesn't everyone just love being wrong about everything all of the time? Who would want to be right about something? /sarcasm

So... what's the point of this question exactly? I see two possibilities:
1. Do you hope that atheism is false and that your favorite god actually exists? (and presumably a pleasant afterlife as well)
2. Do you hope that atheism is true and you don't get sodomized by demonic pitchforks for eternity after you die? (implied Pascal's wager)
