That's what I ask my Christian friends. "But what if Zeus is real? Aren't you afraid of being wrong by not believing in Zeus? Look how much you stand to be rewarded by Zeus for believing, and how much you risk losing by doubting. Are you really willing to gamble your eternal soul on the notion that Zeus is a false god?"
