...but would they seriously trade-in their immortal soul?

If they don't believe in the concept, then why not? None of those three strike me as religious people. Well, Sayid was attending mosque, but that may have been part of his cover.

I meant immortal soul in a non-religious way- probably bad choice of words. I guess I should have said, "go to the darkside" or "become a bad person" or something... maybe even "betrayed themselves" but I went with "trade-in their immortal soul".

Especially Sawyer. He's been such a good egg- responsilbe leader of the 1974 Losties for 3 years. The "badboy" image he tried so hard to cultivate after the crash (and probably before) was a charade and once Kate and others forced him to reveal his true noble, yet tortured and a bit misguided, character... he's been one of the good guys. Yes, I know Juliet's death would have been hard on him. Yes, I get that he, in a moment of rage, would take it out on Jack. But I can't see him joining MIB, or taking more permanent action against Jack and the "White team".

Sawyer has been the most mishandled character on the show. He was a true dark character from the start of the show, but my best guess is they softened him up for two reasons:

The viewers like the character/the actor

They didn't want lost to turn into some Lord of the Flies type of thing from the start, with Jack leading the good guys and Sawyer leading the bad guys. Looks like it's going to end up that way anyway.

They can play with his emotions right up to the finale and I won't care. If in the end they don't let him find his redemption on the island, what is the point of the whole show?

... Crusty doll tries to kill Homer because it was accidentally switched from "good" to "evil.")

You meant "Krusty".

Of course! I knew it looked wrong...
