I agree.
Hey, wouldn't it be awful if we all burned in hell because there is no god?!

Don't forget there are other terrible fates religions offer instead of just hell. I'm sure some other religions think hell is too easy ...

One alternative is the endless cycle of reincarnation, possibly being born of a lower caste (as in Hinduism) or as a lower form of life (such as an Investment Banker).

The Ancient Greeks felt that there was no wonderful afterlife at all and you just hoped that you managed to drink the waters of forgetfulness to help you to adjust to emptiness of a barren eternity.

I think I'd prefer to find out that it's the Inuit's Seal Mother, whom their shamans have been known to chat to, that is in charge. Not having taken part in a seal cull, I should be OK in that case ...

Pascal's Gambit (believe in God just in case he exists) simply doesn't work because there are so many gods and variants of Christianity to believe in. You simply can't believe in them all.

You can always do what I did and base your 'spirituality' on a theist foundation, then define what god is to fit your own views. Result: you don't get labelled a cold atheist or fence sitting agnostic, and there are no great paradoxes because you've defined god to fit your own take on the universe. It also means you don't have to follow a mainstream religion - so no boring church services or mind control from the Vatican. You might however find it a little isolated.
