Nota bene: #pascalswager is #falsebinary, a form of #nonsequitur.

Religious skepticism often meets with #PascalsWager, the old "isn't it better to believe in God and be wrong than to not..."

What do you think of Pascal's Wager? Is it worth believing in a god just in case? And on top of that, would a god accept your wager over a real, firm belief? #christianity #atheism #exvangelical #pascalswager

If we DO take effective global action on climate change, we'll end up with a MUCH better sustainable civilization that benefits the 99%.✅
If we don't, then it's likely to fall apart quickly.🤨
