Actually, I meant to ask that question. How does a Bayesian
deal with Pascal's wager, assuming that they assign a non-zero
probability to Christianity's claims regarding heaven and hell
being true, and an infinite positive reward with eternal heaven
and an infinite negative reward with eternal damnation?
Assume there are no other religions being proposed.
