I could reduce that position to absurdity but this isn't the right post. Has there been a top-level post actually exploring this kind of Pascal's Wager problem? I might have some insights on the matter.
Yudkowsky - evidently tired of the criticism that he was offering a small chance of infinite bliss and indicating that the alternative was eternal oblivion (and stop me if you have heard that one before) - once wrote The Pascal's Wager Fallacy Fallacy - if that is what you mean.
Ah, thank you! Between that and ata's comment just above I feel the question has been solved.
Sorry, but I'm new here; it's not clear to me what the protocol is here. I've responded to ata's comment here, and figured you would be interested, but don't know if it's standard to try and recombine disparate leaves of a tree like this.
