Anyone here watch Jeopardy?

No, you simply do not understand the logical fallacy of the wager.

The most important question facing humans is will we be a theist, atheist or agnostic. That will determine how we live daily and where we will spend eternity.

Doing the math, I think being a theist is the logical choice.

But the choices are infinite, as are the possible outcomes. There is no "safe" bet. This is the fallacy in the wager. Any reasonable person ought to be able to see that on their own. However, for those who don't, once it is explained to them it is impossible to not understand it without making a willful choice to ignore reason.

Sure, the choices are infinite. You're still choosing atheism, though.

It's up to us what we want to choose even if there are infinite options.
