Feel free to unscreen.

The best attempt I've had at explaining it so far is here (http://wildeabandon.livejournal.com/213154.html?thread=2450338#t2450338).

Also, I think there's quite a large chance I'm so much happier as a Christian than as an atheist, and also make other people happier, that I'd rather delude myself.

And thirdly, I think the common arguments why Pascal's Wager is wrong are stupid, so I see no reason not to follow it. I do plan to write about this in my lj at some point, but don't have the time now.
