Unfortunately, I doubt this topic will stay open for long on philosophical merit, considering Pascal's wager is so closely tied with trying to answer the question "Is there a god?".

Heard and read it a few times.

I'm sure nothing will come up in this thread that hasn't been said in countless other debates on the internet.

I'll save my scathing post in fear of warnings.

I wouldn't encourage someone to do something against the rules. >_>
And yeah, no political/religious threads. Against the rules.

Pascal was a genius but I personally find his religious philosophy a bit lacking. I've dabbled a bit with Kierkegaard and quite like it but I certainly couldn't call myself well read in his philosophy yet.

But more importantly religious philosophy rather clearly falls within the ban on religious discussion and as such this thread is locked.
