摘要

许多人认为帕斯卡的赌注是无望的失败。出现这种情况的一个主要原因是，人们提出了许多具有挑战性的反对意见，包括“多神”反对意见和“混合策略”反对意见。我们认为，这两种反对意见都是形式上的问题，而不是实质性的问题，它们都因同样的原因而失败。然后，我们回应对赌注的其他反对意见。我们展示了帕斯卡利亚推理的一个版本是如何成功的，它给了我们一个理由，让我们特别注意我们行为的无限后果。

Salvaging Pascal’s Wager

Many think that Pascal’s Wager is a hopeless failure. A primary reason for this is because a number of challenging objections have been raised to the wager, including the “many-gods” objection and the “mixed strategy” objection. We argue that both objections are formal, but not substantive, problems for the wager, and that they both fail for the same reason. We then respond to additional objections to the wager. We show how a version of Pascalian reasoning succeeds, giving us a reason to pay special attention to the infinite consequences of our actions.
