Prof. McCormick's lecture on Pascal's Wager. Pascal argues that we cannot know the existence or nature of God through reason. But believing is in our interest because we stand to benefit enormously if God exists. Believing is a good bet.

There are a number of important problems with Pascal's argument including the Many Gods Problem.
