SexyTimeSasquatch,

What if belief results in creation? Why would I want to believe in this Lovecraftian noodle-god, when the very act of belief might spawn this horror into our universe? Our only protection is disbelief.

I have nothing to gain either.

r3df0x,

I recently started believing in a man in the sky.

ArcaneSlime,

Sorry I’m keeping up that Faith In “Bob!” That’s right, the big F.I.B. He’s the saint of sales and one true living slack master after all.

ThrowawayPermanente,

Shit this applies to all of them, doesn’t it?

InternetCitizen2,

Which is whyPascal’ss wager is not that nstrong of a position.

afraid_of_zombies,

Yes. You would have to hedge your bets and believe in every possible god. I wonder however if you could apply customer service techniques to it. The god that complains the most gets the most belief

ImWaitingForRetcons,

You’re not wrong lol, the logical extreme of Pascal’s wager leads you to worship the god who has the worst punishment for non-believers, so that you only end up with the second-worst punishment from some other god.

pantyhosewimp,

Thankfully my poor impulse control prevents me from living a fraudulent lifetime in exchange for some payoff.

I don’t particrlarly care for spaghetti, so I’m in the Church of Bacon. The CoB not only recognizes FSM, but also his recognizes and respects his existence and his followers.

Down with monotheism.

I love both, so I started the Church of Carbonara. Our church believes it was revealed by God that carbonara made with bacon is not an abomination.

apprehentice,

That’s fine, because FSM doesn’t even require you to believe or follow their beliefs in order to associate with them.

tubbadu,

The only FSM i know are Finite State Machines

R’amen.

marcos,

Well, next time somebody invents a god, please make sure it’s somebody that will punish you if you believe in any god.

Seudo, (edited )

I prefffer to sacrifice a chicken to Cthulhu each dawn. Seems like the FSM will be far more tolerant if I get it wrong. By that logic, picking the Judeo-Christian god does kind of make sense.

Pastacal’s wager.
