Creationism is no more bogus than evolution. I guess this debate really won't be settled until all of us have passed on. And at that point, you'll either know nothing, or that we were right.

Yeah, and astrology is no more bogus than astronomy. Oh, wait ... one is based upon superstition and one is based upon empirical evidence. hmmm

Not necessarily...you make the same mistake that Pascal himself did in his "wager," namely not enumerating the possibilities correctly for the expected value calculation. What if we find ourselves watching Thoth (or is it Osiris?) with our hearts and the feather of justice in the balance, or the ferryman waiting to take us to Charon, or [insert random religion's view of the afterlife here]?
