Do you ever consider that Bill Gates would trade his fortune for a really shiny quarter?

In my religious point of view, I see it as a waste to obtain materialistic and finite fame for the price of an individual's soul. You'll live, what, 60-70 years probably? Comparing this life to the Hereafter, I'm staying on Allah's side.

Selling your soul means finding a more powerful being who can grant you some power. Not only does this come with the cost of eternal servitude, your master must also limit the amount of power that he grants you, or else he risks losing his position.
I suppose, if you value power or pleasure over freedom, then hop right in.
Ever hear the about selling your soul for fame, money, and power?

most mainstream and extremely successful musicians talk about selling their soul or have some kind of satanistic theme.

Yep! And I even know a guy who tried it. This guy studied on Satanism and Demonology for years, and finally performed an elaborate High Magick Ritual to bring forth Satan himself in a "Solomon Triangle", also known as the "Triangle of the Art" The Triangle can be found in the Manuscript "The Goetia" also known as "The Lesser Key of Solomon the King". Once again it is one of the most important tools in the Conjuring of Spirits.
Anyway, my friend spent several hours with the conjuration, but he did not get Satan. What he told me he did get was Set, who proceeded to tell my friend that first there is no such being as "Satan," and secondly, he, Set, did not make deals with humans.
My friend forgot all about trying to sell his soul after that.
What I didn't know than is the Human Spirit is what animates us all, and we actually are the Spirit, we only reside in the "Temple" the human receptacle until such a time as we pass from it. So, you cannot sell it. I would say those who say they did sell their Souls are either nuts, or after sensational headlines.
