well damn... i hadn't yet reached your post when i did the pascal ploy
on our friend scott... but, i disagree with the "weak-minded" ploy.
it's actually a strong argument in matters unscientific to say "what's
the harm", isn't it?

if you're going to bet on a potentially life-altering (or after-life)
issue, why not the safe wager?


I just can't help myself. What exactly is the "safe wager"
for the after-life?
