Non-believers...

Here... If you lack faith, you can still look at it this way.

A mathematician Pascal was also a Philosipher, near the end of his life he start asking questions.

The First one was, "What if i go through life not believing there is a god and find out that i was right when i die?"

The answer would be,"nothing to lose, nothing to gain."

The second question was, "What I go through life not believing in a god and finding out I was wrong and a god did exist?"

The answer would be, "My soul to lose, nothing gained."

The Third question was, "What if I go though life believing there was a god and ind out when i die that i was wrong."

The answer would be, "Nothing lost, Nothing gained."

The final question was, "What if i go through life, believing there was a god and found out that i was right?"

The answer would be, "Nothing lost, everything to gain."

Pascal followed these thought, wrote them down, and became a Religious man and died so.

I went through this very same thought process myself when i was in 5th grade. But without faith, this philosophy is hipcritcal. But hey it is a start of faith.
