For purposes of keeping the discussion on topic, can we just assume dlikhten's comment is specifically about people whose belief in God is based on Pascal's wager, and not about believers in general?
- dlikhten 15y agoIts a shame people down-voted this. This is exactly what I meant. I care not about existence vs non-existence but the way people treat it.
- notahacker 15y agoTo be fair, it could be said the analogy falls a little flat if Pascal's Wager is almost invariably considered only as an ad hoc rationalisation for things people genuinely believe to be true.
