What is your soul worth????????

If I was Satan …

I wouldn’t be posting this because I was banned from the board.

But if I was Satan and not banned …

I’d never appear before people and offer them a contract for their soul. After all, an appearance by Satan proves the existence of Hell and most people, confronted by this, would suddenly develop a interest in ensuring their entry into Heaven.

So, as Keyser Sose once said, Satan’s greatest trick was convincing people he didn’t exist. Rather than explicitly buying souls, Satan would offer opportunities for people to damn their souls. Satan would be the one who dropped the wallet with $5000 and the owner’s address inside it. Satan would be the one who sent over the sexy neighbour when your spouse is out of town. Satan is the one who lets you find out some embarassing gossip about a co-worker. In each case, you think you have the opportunity to do something morally wrong without consequences, but Satan is keeping score.

Immortality, the perfect partner and a hell of a lot of money. :slight_smile:

N/A. I gave my soul to my girlfriend after losing a bet.

Omnipotence, omniscience, an unholy legion of playboy playmates, an assload of money,immortality,free will and another soul.

And a way to easily get out of the contract.

…and, presumably, a donut?

errrrrr…I’m thinking I should have made this thread “sell your soul for a donut”

:smiley:

As someone already mentioned, selling your soul is a poor economic decision, since you gain a small short term advantage while losing considerable equity in the long term.

The solution, therefore, is to lease your soul. That way, you get the benefit of interest over the lease term, limited depreciation, and the ability to set your own terms to the lesee - such as the all important doughnut clause.

**You just sold you immortal soul to the devil?!??

Well, I wasn’t usin’ it!**

No. A donut factory, on the other hand…

I don’t really believe in souls, or the devil, but if I found myself in a position where the devil was offering me good or services in exchange for it, I would at that point begin beliving, as I would be convinced that the devil was real based on seeing him with my own eyes, and would therefore be convinced my soul was real, as shown by the fact that the devil was interested in a trade for it.

And, life has taught me that if a salesman approaches you with an offer that just seems too good to be true, and it appears as if you’ll get something for nothing, there will be a catch.

Personally, whether I believe in the Devil or not, I do not want to ever be caught in any “catches” that he might dream up, so I would, respectfully, pass on the offer.

Oh but if I DID make the trade, I’d be sure not to eat the entire donut. “I OUTSMARTED THE DEVIL!”

I’d go for a cool million. Thats enough to bankroll into more.

Or do the same thing with omnipotence, and hit the devil with the Rolled Up Newspaper Of God Almighty when he comes to collect.

Who’s Asia Carerra?! Who’s Asia Carerra, he says?!

For shame.

I’ll sell my soul in exchange for proof that the soul exists. Empirical evidence needed. Good luck!

Depends on who’s buying it.

If Satan: Enough money to change the entire world for the better, and to finance the research of technologies which would make me virtually immortal – say, $500 trillion.

If any corporeal human: $5, cash or money order. You send it, I’ll send you a signed slip of paper saying you own my soul.

I would sell my soul for a buckskin Jacket and a frozen hot Chocolate. Maybe less

Let’s see (TVGuy looks around for ‘soul’ and finds ‘sole’)

The bottom of my feet aren’t for sale.

(wait … something’s not quite right about that)

Soul? Never had any. Can’t dance worth a damn and don’t know da blues at all.

(no, I don’t think that’s what they’re talking about either…)

A soul, huh? This has something to do with the kind of stuff this nutcase talks about right? Something about religion, spirit, etc.?

You can have mine for whatever you think it’s worth. Personally, I figure it’s worth zero because it isn’t.

OTOH, if it appears to be worth something to the right Satan worshipping cultists, then I’m all in - how much you got???

Now there’s the potential of a deal. I, a corporeal human, buy Varlos’ soul for five dollars. Then I turn around and sell it to Satan for ten million dollars, Asia Carrera, and a donut.

I point out a flaw iun your diabolical plan, Nemo/

asia Carrera might eat the donut.

Then where would you be?

You need to think these things through.
