I think your clearly butthurt about this..lol

Yes he is. With how he complain, cussing, & telling people to kiss his wide load ass like an immature child. No thanks, SLJ. Don't want you to fart a nasty one from the chili cheese burrito you ate last night. :eek:

And you don't tell me to shut the fug up, 'cause you need to big time with bashing religious people while acting like one with trying to force everyone to think like you. Again, you got a lot of problem there. So sad you're full of it too. :P :p

I hate the idea of Pascal's wager. Now granted, I only know it vaguely and haven't read his other works, but I could never get behind the idea that God favors a smart gambler. I understand what he's saying, but is that really believing? And more than this, is calculated belief enough to achieve the salvation that the wager seeks?

i hesitated to mention it for this very reason. it's honestly a selfish sort of existentialism... and i certainly don't think any acceptance of christian creed through that lens is in any way salvific. it's simply a tool that illustrates the gravity of the situation; it makes a lot more sense in the context of the Pensees. pascal spends the entire first third of the book breaking down epistemological illusions and when you're grasping for the meaning that has just been carved from your psyche he hits you with the wager.

it's genius. not theologically sound, but as a tool to illustrate a point - genius.
