Anybody know any good articles on the old 'believe in God just to be on the safe side' trick and its flaws?

I tried to learn PASCAL once. It didn't go so well.

PASCAL is like BASIC on retard pills.

And we just read about Pascal in philosophy...if you ignore all the bowling ball-sized holes in his arguments, he actually makes a pretty good case for Christianity.
