Are we screwed if Yahweh exists?

I don't think he would put me in hell. Maybe it's all a big test and instead he will put all the Christians in hell as punishment for being unconcerned about the idea of other souls suffering in hell for eternity. I would worry if I were a Christian.
How to become vegan in 4.5 hours:
1.Watch Forks over Knives (Health)
2.Watch Cowspiracy (Environment)
3. Watch Earthlings (Ethics)
Congratulations, unless you are a complete idiot you are now a vegan.

Well, you are pointing out a big failure in the Pascal's Wager argumentation. You don't know when a god (or gods) would exist, what it is that would benefit you and others—or how to avoid eternal damnation. There is no trustworthy method of getting to know which god is real, if there is one (or many) in the first place.
