RE: Pascal's Wager Revisited

Let's adjust the wager a bit and see how it works:

If Odin is real, you'll go to Valhalla when you die, providing that you slew your enemies and died in battle (for those of you not familiar, Valhalla rocks the most).

If Odin is not real, you'll end up either in some other afterlife (and all of them read as pretty fucking dull) or in nothingness.

Therefore, it is in your own best interest to start killing people.
