(February 27, 2013 at 3:45 am)Muslim Scholar Wrote: Hi all,

Let's start with a new old topic
Pascal's Wager

I"ll put the statement which I'm trying to prove first

Atheism is a very weak position to take, (Anything is better than nothing)

P(G) is the probability of God existence (which is >0 unless you can prove that God doesn't exist)

V the value of your life
P(V) the probability of your death

P(G)/(P(V)xV) will go to infinity as your life is coming to an end
But as you don't know when are you going to die, you should embrace a religion NOW!

This is funny, you are trying to turn a debunked piece of antiquated poo into a math formula. You can re dress the skunk in a different color tux all you want but it is still a skunk.

It still amounts, as others in this thread have said, to "covering your ass out of fear". Why would you subject yourself to someone out of fear just to be safe?
