Sell your soul to the devil

The legendary guy who sold his soul was Dr. <strike>Fidelius</strike> Faustus.

Actually, it always puzzled me about this, since according to medieval theology, any sin could be repented of, so such a sale would not hold up in Judgment if repented of, but if not, then the very act of considering such a sale would be a sin, and therefore the devil would get the soul for free, without having to go through all the bother of providing willing, nubile females, large quantities of gold, and whatever else the pneumovendor was inclined to ask for.

I will sell my sould to anybody, at any time, for any price. I will also part with my aura, my ka, my spirit, my essence and my lifetime’s supplies of mana, heka and divine redemption.

Contact me by email and I will send you a direct deposit form.

Well, not any sin. Mortal sins (murder, adultery, making fun of the bishop’s hat) always meant a well-heated room in the barbed-tailed guy’s house, no matter how hard you repented them.

Rysdad said that last year’s Atlanta over Minnesota game in the NFC Championship is proof that one can sell one’s soul.

If you get thee hence to the Debate on who’ll win the next Super Bowl, you’ll read my version of exactly how that happened.

And I think Georgia Frontierre(sp?) sold her soul this year, which is why the St. Louis Rams have already won the NFC West and have the best record in the whole NFC.
