You know how there's the saying of "sold your soul to the devil"
Do you think this is literally possibly true? To me if there's a soul then it wouldn't "belong" to me so how could I sell it? It'd belong to whoever creates souls wouldn't it?

My soul and my boat are called "Not for rent"

To me it’s a metaphor for the choice to give into temptation..if you continue to do so you lose control over yourself. We need to keep trying to steer ourselves down the right path

@SW-User yes. I agree with that.

you sell your soul through taking part of the table that satan has set for you. You will surely get benefits, but as you said you sold your soul for it.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@MartinTheFirst It's easy to do, most people do it without even realizing it.
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@MartinTheFirst I wonder what table he set for me? 🤔 And can I go eat off of other peoples tables too? Because I might prefer their table. Can I table surf? If I'm accidently eating off Satan's table and don't know it then I want to try all the tables. And then probably leave. I'll just take, not sit down anywhere particular and call a taxi - is that allowed?

I believe you can make an agreement to the devil or to God to sell your soul. But I wonder are you in control of your life after you sell your soul? I don't think you are.
@KaiserSolze 8And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell

@KaiserSolze are we all in control? I think we are until we sell our soul then I think we are not in control.
I agree. The soul is the seat of you, your Self, and was created by God as an inalienable birthright which He alone can judge, etc. It is your stakehold in Eternity.

But wouldn't it be a very diabolical thing to get ppl to believe that they COULD, or HAVE sold their soul, so that you live in fear and paralysis? Hmmmm...
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@SomeMichGuy I think people do.
HoraceGreenley · 56-60, M
I've seen it happen
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@HoraceGreenley ummm I guess. Unless the individual just likes doing unethical or illegal things and then they're doing it for fun so they don't loose their soul in those cases?
HoraceGreenley · 56-60, M
@KaiserSolze this is the case where a person never did those things before
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@HoraceGreenley what if they secretly wanted to but didn't until the risk was worth the gain but they did it for kicks just the same?
curiosi · 61-69, F
Look into the eyes of a psycho/sociopath they have no soul because they sold it.
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@curiosi maybe they never had one in the first place? They didn't queue up or something?
curiosi · 61-69, F
@KaiserSolze We all have souls. Look into the eyes.
I know it's not popular but I believe every human being has a soul.
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@Itsmrsockmonkey me too about 80-90% but the other 10-20% I'm not sure. But i do sway towards we all have a soul.
@KaiserSolze I just know the Bible and what it says and believe it.
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@Itsmrsockmonkey fair enough.
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
Even if it was true, why would anyone want to? The payback is literally hell. Lol
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@DearAmbellina2113 yeah I tend to think that.
JammieDodgerHeart · 26-30, F
Not literally but metaphorically you can lol
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@JammieDodgerHeart yeah metaphorically you can but metaphorically you can claim it back too.
HoraceGreenley · 56-60, M
@JammieDodgerHeart well I did see one on Ebay.
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@HoraceGreenley I believe that. People on eBay buy anything lol
no . once you're in that thought frame, it's already given away.

Much in the same way you can sell a kidney.

You should watch a movie Ghostrider
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@Billcrater I've seen it
No, I don’t see how. A soul isn’t really tangible.
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@bijouxbroussard people sell intangible stuff like time or an idea. Ideas are worth money although they aren't tangible until put to practice?
@KaiserSolze So how would one access a soul ? An idea can be made tangible, and time can be measured.
KaiserSolze · 46-50, F
@bijouxbroussard true. I guess if you give yourself up, your morals, your personality, your boundaries, your beliefs, your wellbeing, the well being of others for gain whether money, power or fame etc.

I don't have to sell my soul he's already in me
