"Well, answer me this question--You may know something I don't know--does any other religion promise a worse fate, or even a fate as bad, for those who do not follow its beliefs as a never-ending sentence of punishment and anguish?"
Via a little something called Occam's Razor - which destroys Pascal's Wager every time - just construct for us a dimensional portal generator (a la that in the Sci-Fi TV series "Sliders"; or at least the Iconian portal in one episode of "ST:TNG") that can show, nay, bring us to this realm of existence called an 'Afterlife', so we can see for ourselves the proof, thus Pascal - and you - was right all along...?

I'm waiting...!

...time's up . No dimensional portal do I see before me, so I'm afraid that - along with Pascal's so-called 'Wager' that the likes of William Hill, BetFred and Paddy Power won't touch - I'm afraid I'm gonna have to do this:
(*Pushes Hidden in Christ [the dirty bugger!] and his argument into rearward section of experimental spaceship 'Event Horizon'; closes, locks & seals airlock and fires locking latches, separating ship halves. Boosts away from Fold Drive section; watches as coundown ends, and dimensional portal appears as rearward section's Fold Drive activates, taking said section, HiC & his argument to the Chaos Dimension for a fate worse than a fate worse than death: to be hideously raped & mutilated for eternity.*)
Liberate tutame ex inferis. >:D
...oh, and just to spice things up, re. your argument having things done to it that would make the Cenobites (in the "Hellraiser" films) die of terror, consider this, HiC:
The title of that particular thread is 'IF you found out that the bibble [sic] is wrong'. Ever hear of something called Spartan Laconic Wit...?! >:D
