The trick is to buy someone elses soul and to pay the devil with that one. |

well, had to know how fast i will get the service, and what service he can actually offer.
Just mortal things, while your still alive, or afterlife things too?
and what if he can get me immortality?
BUT if he can only offer things like "you're gonna win the lottery every week, you get all the hot chicks, everyone will think you're smart" and stuff like that, i don't know, doesn't seem to be a fair trade. ~80 years of life living in a REAL heaven, but the rest of eternity(until the devil eats you O.o) in hell, OR 80 years living in a stupid world, but a eternity in a somewhat nice heaven
to be honest, i would choose the later |

You don't even really have to buy one, some people give theirs away to anyone who asks. I am currently in possesion of 4 souls in addition to my own. |

Would I sell ur soul? Yes, I would happily sell ur's soul. Who is ur?
As a non-believer, however, I'm not entirely convinced I have one. Of course maybe objective reality disagrees - after all, I don't believe in bananas either but I'm fairly sure there's one around here somewhere... |

Yup, reminds me of a book I read once, proposition player.
He inadvertanly acquired 32 souls at a bar. |

I don't have one anyway, so I'll sell it to anybody. _________________

see, i don't know how anyone could sell their soul to the devil. if the devil is offering you something for your soul, that means he exists, which means god exists, which means you better not sell your soul after all. _________________ --Christianity with a touch of logic |

NONONO - 'ur' is a syllabel denoting "ancient" or "original" - so ur-civilization, ur-text, ur-religion. thus the ur soul is the primitive, ancient or original soul, the foundation soul from which all other souls spring. so aleksi_w is actually asking us to sell out the soul of all humanity, that first, primative spark that came from god.
therefore, aleksi_w is actually the devil.
we should probably do something about that. _________________ aka: neverscared!

yay mouse for the sophosticated response.
As for the fundie vision version:
When you start life, the devil already owns you like a credit card company does anyone over 21 (thousand dollars in debt that is, not age per se). So "selling your soul" is like accruing more debt while making minumum payments on your soul. In the end you die and the repo man comes to take your soul. So you get it up the ass in the end whether you "sell your soul" or try to pay it down.
Think about it: title loans are 365% intrest compounded monthly. But soul loans must go for quite a bit more and are probably compounded daily at least. Do you really think you can pay off anything but intrest at those rates? _________________ Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. -- Frederick Douglass |

OH, how the dream life is so tempting!
Travel the world, be rich and respected, revenge on all the people who wronged you, never worry about bills again...
But the price of ONE SOUL...yeh. Eternity in hell for one good life time aint worth it for me. haha. |
