Atheists who become theists

T4R How does one go from not being religious to being religious? Specifically looking for people who have done it themselves. Explain your story, because I'm fascinated.

    If supposedly you go to hell when you die for not believing in God, but go to heaven for believing in God, you have literally nothing to lose by being religious. If it turns out God is real and you're religious, you go to heaven. If it turns out he's fake, nothing happens and you die as normal. If you're an atheist and it turns out God is real, you're going to hell. Therefore, you have nothing to lose by being religious and everything to lose by being atheist. I know there is a philosophical term for this but I can't recall it at the moment.
