(January 8, 2024 at 7:10 pm)The Grand Nudger Wrote: You'd be no more or less safe from allah based on whatever bets you make.  Even that implies some regular order and rule.  Maybe allah is as amused by your bets as it is by the smell of burning flesh and you get into paradise...sexbots and all, on the court jester fast-track.

I've heard that sort of reasoning be used as a counter to Pascal's wager

Basically, people say that god is just as likely to reward sinners and nonbelievers as he is to punish sinners and nonbelievers

Is that actually a valid counter to Pascal's wager?
