I don't tend to read much into this stuff but I have a flatmate who's well into it, so he relays me his findings every now and again. I think it's fairly trivial to find the flaws in most of these arguments (and despite this, yes, they are the most common!), but I will say that I've always found that criticism of Pascal's Wager interesting because I went through the same thought process as a kid, as I'm sure many of you have. That is to say, I decided I may as well believe in God since a relatively small cost in time would eliminate the possibility of ending up in hell if God does exist (and I'm not a risky gambler). Then I soon realised the flaws with that approach...
