Whether you can fake it or not is NOT why Pascal's Wager is absurd. Think harder.

I only read it, didnt think about it.

You might think its absurd cause it says that God rewards belief or that christianity is the only religion that says you will be judged, which is not true or that it says that you can choose belief or the costs that believing would bring or change in lifestyle rather.

I guess your Athestistic view is that whether or not I believe, if there is then he should judge you are your life and not just cause of belief(which I agree), if there isnt then you didnt lose anything in the first place. But I also think not exploring the possiblity is a decision you make to.

Christianity isn't the only religion that claims God will judge us based on our faith in him. There are an infinite number of Gods who will do this. And there are an infinite number of Gods who will do the opposite, and there are an infinite number of Gods who will refuse your entry into Heaven for wearing pants. You'd better take them off, just in case.
