You do claim that your theist position is representative of reality, do you not?
I make the same claims as you but if at the end I die and you are correct ; I may have lost a small amount in the time I lived do to the mistake. But if i'm correct then what? yes its pascals wager but i'm not talking proofs or even a good reason for considering Theism. Just a little poke to make you think.
When you die do you wish that it is the end?
You think you are the first to defend the garbage known as Pascal's Wager?
And as far as wishing it was the end, that is a stupid childish appeal to emotion.
It does not matter what we want, the ride ends. It ends for all of us. We can seek to extend it, but it does not last forever. You want to replace reality with a childish mother's infinite nipple that does not, and never will exist.
And the thought of existing forever, besides being selfish and self centered, seems completely boring to me. I was youthful at one time, but after a period of time I grew up and now know what I want and go through in life is not special. We all fart, shit, pee and will die. No myth will stop this no matter who invents a new one or how much people want to believe bullshit.
