Would you sell your soul?
 
For a very well paying job?

soundtest Jun 15th, 2004 06:53 PM

For a well paying job? Jesus christ no. I'd do a lot of terrible and even sick things for money if given the opportunity, but to still have to ride in a metal coffin to a place I dread wearing a uniform fake I despise with hateful people wearing pretty masks inside otu desperately climbing scratching all over eatch other just to get a little leverage and do disgusting immoral backstabbing forming alliances sinister glances and and spend more than half of my waking life there surrounded by them???? Absolutely not. I'd have to be pretty desperate.

:melt

punkgrrrlie10 Jun 15th, 2004 06:54 PM

but what if it paid REALLY well.

soundtest Jun 15th, 2004 07:19 PM

what's REALLY well

the_dudefather Jun 15th, 2004 07:20 PM

it would be have to be a really really really well paid job, a job that involved being tested in the funmachine which made every second of the job unreasonably fun and amazing

sadie Jun 15th, 2004 07:58 PM

if a job pays well, it's good-paying. . .but didn't they cover the whole "selling your soul" thing in law school? :P

punkgrrrlie10 Jun 15th, 2004 08:53 PM

:)

Trippy Jun 15th, 2004 08:54 PM

da blob Jun 15th, 2004 09:14 PM

No. Because well payed jobs usually require actual work :shudder

My friends and I had a similar discussion.

Given your faith in the afterlife, would you revoke your chance to live on (heaven or hell) in exchange for the skill to play the guitar better than any human being alive? This ability surely will bring you money, the opposite sex, and a rock n roll lifestyle.


So, if there isn't a heaven or hell, you just die, as you would have. If there is one, you cease to exist.

This probably belongs in philosophy. :/

I'm gonna eat your soul. >:

Why would you sell your soul for a job? Just sell it for 10 billion dollars.

punkgrrrlie10 Jun 16th, 2004 12:11 AM

b/c you do the job THEN get the money.

Dr. V Jun 16th, 2004 12:24 AM

but you'd still loose your soul. So why not just get the money and screw working.

Count Shrimpula Jun 16th, 2004 12:32 AM

I'd do it. But only if the job involved the taking of other people's souls and I got a 25% soul commision for each one. That way I could construct a giant ladder out of quarter-souls to climb my wealthy ass to purgatory.

I would make one to Heaven, but I'm sure I wouldn't work that hard.

:o
If selling your soul actually does something more than having your friends laugh at you while you're pronouncing magic words in your backyard with your stylish tinfoil hat, then doesn't it imply that heaven and hell exists?
So, if selling your soul actually works, then it means you just passed on heaven. Or however that works anyways :/

so no way. Not even if I get to host Conan O'Brien

Brandon Jun 16th, 2004 03:58 AM

Well, if I were offered the chance to sell my soul, it would pretty much clear up any confusion as to whether or not an afterlife exists.

So absolutely not.

Spectre X Jun 16th, 2004 08:56 AM

I would sell my soul only for complete immortality. Lost limbs would also have to grow back and I couldn't get imprisoned in steel or somesuch stuff that I can't escape from.

Well, that or the guitar thing Drew mentioned.

glowbelly Jun 16th, 2004 09:08 AM

no.

take a job that means something to you and that you enjoy. it's what you are going to do for pretty much the rest of your life. you don't want to be miserable at something you do for a living.

the money will come when you are satisfied with your work.

plus, money is EVIL.

Correction: it is the root of all evil.
