Is it still possible to sell your soul to the devil?
Your soul, in almost all cases, is a not yours to sell, as it is the part of you connected to The Diety (insert Diety here) nor can the evil one make good on his bargains. If you consider Goethes Faust, we see that in the end, Faust beats the devil because:
1 He wanted all encompassing knowledge to help and aid others.
2 Greta/Marguerite was not delivered to him.
I believe this all shows up in Faust, book 2, written some years after the original and encompassing more philosophical considerations.

I thought it was supposed to be blood.
We've moved on a bit since then.
Red ink is seen as the modern equivalent. You can still use your own blood if you want.

Can't help but ask why you ask.
Someone accused you of something?
Theology is of course a crap totally invented pursuit/area of study.
I'd remove it from all educational establishments that aren't run by some flavour of god (whichever god) botherers.
Has kept a few people in jobs for a couple of thousand years though.
