i actually think this is dumb. its pure +EV to believe in God. if there isnt a heaven/hell and ure an athiest, wd great. if there is a heaven/hell and your an athiest, ure [censored]. its just implied odds. granted Christianity may not be the correct religion, and potentially it has to be narrowed down further, but you choose whatever makes the most sense to you.

Being a Christian because of Pascal's wager is silly. If god were choosing between someone who went through the motions because he was worried about his eternal soul vs. someone who led a good life but didn't believe in him, which would he prefer to let into heaven?

I've got nothing against Christians (the fact I didn't know you were one is definitely a plus in your favour), but this kind of defence is a bad rationale.
