I mean think about it. Say you took a gamble and just, for the hell of it, decided to believe in God, even though he may not exist. And then you die one day, and guess what? Holy sh*t, God exists. Well good thing you believed right? Cause now you're going to heaven, and eternal bliss, and all that.
But if he doesn't exist? Well then you had nothing to lose anyway, right? Like just before you enter that realm of eternal darkness and nothing, are you going to think to yourself "dammit, I shouldn't have spent all that time believing in God and an afterlife!"?

I have a funny idea some people would rather not live a lie (if they truly don't believe in God). And you also make it sound as if it's really easy to believe in God. I mean, if you truly don't believe in a higher power, then you shouldn't. It wasn't in your cards.
