According to Pascal, it may be to our advantage to have faith, while reason is seen by some as infinite.
Blaise Pascal sought to reconcile faith and reason through his Pragmatic Argument for the Existence of God , which is based on the idea that the potential rewards of believing in God outweigh the potential risks of not believing. ;
Blaise Pascal, in his work "Pensées," introduced Pascal's Wager as a way to reconcile faith and reason. He argued that believing in God is a rational choice due to the potential infinite gains compared to minimal losses. Pascal proposed that by acting as if you believe, you may come to true faith.
