You can be determined and still rationally state "If all men are mortal, and Socrates is a man, Socrates is mortal" and "There will likely be an underwater earthquake off the Alaskan ghost within the next 72 hours.".

The same is true of UFOLogy and Cryptozoology.

For all you know, someone at the Indianapolis newspaper may have simply claimed a nurse saw it rather than a nurse actually seeing it. The alleged hospital PDF mostly has names blacked out.

Could be. Some answers I've seen on the problem of evil/hell seem to require the person be an utter psychopath or egomaniac in order to accept them. Such as "It's worth it that some people might go to Hell since some people might get a greater enjoyment out of heaven by freely choosing to go to Heaven"or the possibly even worse, even more psychopathic "God isn't obligated not to let people wind up in unfathomable torment forever".

Sure, why not? The existence of a deity is just as irrelevant to moral truth as it is to mathematical truth. No quantity or quality of "greater good" could justify even the risk of people ending up shrieking in unfathomable torment forever. Nothing could justify people shrieking in unfathomable torment forever in and of itself either.

That's an appeal to numbers fallacy.

This statement by Pascal presupposes an ability to 'Change one's mind" about wanting it to be true. I ahve consistently been unable to change my mind and don't see what I would call an "ability" to do so.

I have heard thee are thousands of alleged sightings of Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, the Chupacabra and I dismiss these without a second thought. Don't you?
