No, Paschal was not wrong. Being a Scientist, and a Christian, he saw farther than many of you perhaps have. Here, we are speaking of Christianity-Atheism only, or Christianity vis a vis Atheism. When you are unsure between Two Alternatives, it is wise to start with 50:50. As for Christianity vis a vis Islam, for e.g. assuming we start with 50:50, each new data point makes us more sure which is the Truth. For e.g. Christianity affirms the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ under Pontius Pilate, but Islamism absurdly denies this. Next, when Secular Historians are consulted, they inform or tell us that the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ under Pontius Pilate is a most certain historical fact, one of the things, they say, we are nearly 100% certain happened in the historical life of Jesus of Nazareth. That being the case, Christianity versus Islamism immediately rises at least to something like Christianity being 95% the better choice compared to just 5% Islam. Then, other factors come into play, Christ's loving treatment of children, of women, of others etc, compared and contrasted to that of Mohammed's etc.
