[[Blaise Pascal]] reasoned that, given the relative gains and losses for each scenario, the only sensible course for a rational human being was to believe in God. Pascal's wager as Pascal stated is inherently flawed within the context of Christianity, because within Christian theology, mere belief in God does not ensure salvation.

Pascal's wager becomes even more flawed if viewed by someone who has the choice of more beliefs, such as "God A Exists", "God B Exists", "No Gods Exits", and "All the Gods of Pantheon X Exist".  How do you choose then?
