Dear PRP, if you have a religion, thatÂ’s fine. If you do not have, pls take some time to read.
Pascal's Wager is the application by the French philosopher and mathematician, Blaise Pascal, of decision theory to the belief in God (also known as Pascal's Gambit).
We are faced with the following possibilities:
1. You live as though God exists.
. If God exists, you go to heaven: your gain is infinite.
. If God does not exist, your loss is nothing.
2. You do not live as though God exists.
. If God exists, you go to hell: your loss is infinite.
. If God does not exist, you gain nothing & lose nothing.
With these two possibilities, and the principles of statistics, Pascal attempted to demonstrate that the only prudent course of action is to live as if God exists. There is no third possibility.
Besides treatment, some doctors and scientists also believe in the healing power of prayer. You can try a two-pronged attack on your cancer or other illness.
