I love the old stories of the "cute hoor", getting one over the Devil. The Devil was always a cut and dry character that was steadfast and easily fooled.The Irish man was always portrayed as clever beyond his appearance. Duffy being the best example, with the 7 year story.
I would not sell my soul for anything, it has always been seen as a no coming back kind of situation.
Mo Johnson joined rangers from Celtic, Figo join Madrid from Barca, both some their soul.
If I could change the fabric of the universe and remove greed , i would think about it.
I don't know if I believe in souls but I believe in evil so I wouldn't risk it . |

Hmmm, a deal with the devil is always a case of the large print giveth, the small print taketh away.
For example there is a greek myth where someone was granted immortality but did not receive eternal youth to go with it. They just got older and older.
Or in the case of asking for wealth and the devil duly obliges by killing your parents and therefore you get your wish by the inheritance you receive. |
