Another place Pascal's wager fails on is the cost one has to pay for believing (such as attending services, time/money for religious holidays, ect.)

Pascal's wager does not fail there. It would hold up under torture, early death and poison that transforms your blood into fire ants too. Cryonics is not nearly so robust in that particular respect.
