Let us, for the sake of this question, acknowledge the existence of the Devil and Hell.
So, you're walking along a dirt road and you happen upon a crossroads. In the middle of the crossroads stands a man in a crumpled old suit. This is the Devil.
He offers you the one-time chance to make a deal with him.
You may choose any one area of expertise; musical ability, understanding of the universe, you name it, but in return you will be condemned to an eternity of suffering in Hell after your death.
1) Would you do it, and if so, what?
2) If yes, why? If no, why not?
3) If yes, what would you use your new abilities for?
