"Pascal's Wager" is true for now
There will come a time in the near future that it will be to late for "Pascal's Wager" and the gnashing of teeth will take the place of "Pascal's Wager". I would say that this young man is just getting to the age where he can see out of the nest and like LN said life will teach most of us the lessons that no single person can teach us. I have a question for the new avatar Santabot. Do you in any way know brain from other forums or even your personal life ?
Al as always I like you and your post and God Bless you and your family Sir Isaac |

Hmm, I wonder what Pascal's Wager says for people who are neither Christian nor Atheist.

Seriously, do you believe in a single living God as being a higher power or not? Not gods (pronounced gods-za) but God? Not a statue but God? Not the sun or moon, but God? If asked the questions, "who is my lord? Who do I bow to and pray to?" and your answer is __fill_in_blank___, and you put anything in "fill in blank" other than the word "God", then I'm guessing Pascal's Wager would apply to you. IMHO, there is much to gain by believing in a single living God who is as generious and loving as He is. And that's all I have to say about that. |

It is not by my choice that I attend a local church, it's because of family, they are very aware of my religious stance and I express it openly as often as possible. Where has there been a deviation in any of my posts? Atheists can attend any religious service they like, may I interest you in looking at Unitarianism?

For your information, yes I have driven (at peak) maybe 75% of the time high, and am even more cautious a driver. I really don't care what you or anyone will tell me about how dangerous that is, but I'm sure you can find plenty more petty things to worry about. Aren't you supposed to be waiting to die? Doesn't that put you in a better place, according to your Holy book? Why should you care anyway?

Now you see, you have proven your stupidity in this area....
DUI: Driving under the Influence which means the influence can be of alcohol or drugs. You can be arrested for be under the influence of drugs and yes officers can detect that and request for a blood level to be drawn. I would hate for you to find out about this the hard way. |
