What are some funny alternate versions of "Pascal's wager"?

Asked by ragingloli (51979points) January 15th, 2021

Pascal’s wager states, that the potential cost of not believing in god is so great (spending an eternity in hell) and that the potential cost of erroneously believing in god is so miniscule, that it logical to believe in god, just to be on the safe side.

So here is my version:
Daleks, as you all know, have no way of climbing up stairs.
We should therefore immediately rip out all accessibility options in the public space that are installed to accomodate disabled people, like ramps and elevators, because those make it easy for the Daleks to reach their victims.
By removing all the accessibility installations, we would save humanity, when the Daleks invade.
