In contrast to Pascal’s Wager Triangle, Pascal’s Triangle Wager argues that maybe God wants you to draw a triangle of numbers where each one is the sum of the two numbers above it, so you probably should, just in case.

I was filing that under ‘mystical fluff’, but it certainly shapes the stories and how they were told.
All Religion has its origin in shamanism. That then led to polytheism which then led to monotheism. What all those have in common is that people made it up as they went along.
Does Christian monotheism exist? A majority (?!) of Americans believe there is a Devil.
Which just goes to show that it’s all made up nonsense.
Catholics also have patron saints for nearly everything from infants to ice skaters that they pray to but that are totally not gods because there is only one god. I mean, yeah, their second most important prayer is directed at the Virgin Mary, but that doesn’t mean they worship her or anything.
Afaik, christians don’t see the devil as a god, but as one of god’s minions tasked with temping the flock or having them prove their faith or some shit.
Sounds like a god. Even if they’d sniff at it.
So do angels.
