hasn't anyone mentioned Pascal's Wager? as follows:
if you bet that there is an afterlife and you're right, you win
if you bet there is no afterlife and you're right you win
if you bet there is an afterlife and you're wrong, you lose, but not much
if you bet there is no afterlife and you lose, you GO TO HELL!
of course this is in the context of Christianity... and a very mathematical approach to it too (cost analysis)... interesting though eh?
