Yes, but we know that just because there's only two options, it doesn't mean that both options are equally probable.
Someone can say he's trusting that single probability that there is a god, but if the chances are even as low as 1/6400, it's illogical to think that hundreds of millions of people are willing to take those odds.
Therefore it's illogical (and stupid) for a theist to use this argument in favor of belief.
