Most retarded argument that is actually seriously used in religious debates.1. "God is, or He is not"
2. A Game is being played... where heads or tails will turn up.
3. According to reason, you can defend either of the propositions.
4. You must wager. (It's not optional.)
5. Let us weigh the gain and the loss in wagering that God is. Let us estimate these two chances. If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing.
6. Wager, then, without hesitation that He is. (...) There is here an infinity of an infinitely happy life to gain, a chance of gain against a finite number of chances of loss, and what you stake is finite. And so our proposition is of infinite force, when there is the finite to stake in a game where there are equal risks of gain and of loss, and the infinite to gain.
it's funny how people don't understand that this isn't an argument for the existence of god, it's an argument for why you should believe in god.Haggis_McMutton wrote:Most retarded argument that is actually seriously used in religious debates.1. "God is, or He is not"

That doesnt mean its not a stupid argument, because the tails of that coin for many means living a life of complete ignorance, and in many cases, outright delusion.john9blue wrote:it's funny how people don't understand that this isn't an argument for the existence of god, it's an argument for why you should believe in god.Haggis_McMutton wrote:Most retarded argument that is actually seriously used in religious debates.1.

Funny, the earliest interaction I remember with you was debating Pascal's Wager, maybe like 3-4 years ago. You were still defending it and I was still saying it is an impressively bad argument.john9blue wrote:oh, well in that case his lack of understanding of pascal's wager gives him a commanding lead.kentington wrote:I think he is saying your post must have been the dumbest crap that came to mind.

Well, that certainly qualifies for this thread, but just to point out some ignorance here, the word many, meant that many religious people are ignorant, which is most certainly true, not all.john9blue wrote:it's not a bad thing unless it affects others.Army of GOD wrote:why is ignorance a bad thing?

this is why those who think religious people are ignorant often try to justify their hatred and superiority complexes by claiming that religion "poisons everything" or whatever. it "validates" their hatred.
Oh yeah? You wouldn't stand a chance--not a chance!! <waves fist>Haggis_McMutton wrote:Funny, the earliest interaction I remember with you was debating Pascal's Wager, maybe like 3-4 years ago.

Tell you what, start a thread on Pascal's wager if you want. I wager I can show it's idiotic in at least 3 independent ways.
