    Well not exactly. The wager is more like, “if God is real, there is an infinite punishment or reward in the afterlife.” So, sucking it up and going to church incurs a finite penalty in this life for an infinite reward in the next. On the other hand, ignoring God and seeking earthly pleasures may have a small positive impact on your life, but in the next, you go to hell and have an infinite punishment.
