Would a modern day Pascal make his wager?

Hello, new member, not new sceptic. What got me to join was a question that's been half formed for a while but that I couldn't quite place till now. Pascal said there was no proof either way for god but it was safer to believe yadda. Well, we've discovered so much more about supposed Bible history and biology as to make it scientifically certain at the very least that Pascals idea of a Christian god does bot exist, st least so far as the Bible is concerned. Do you think with this evidence a modern day Pascal would still wager?
