Didint Martin Luther have issue with just that kind of scam? I recall some minor strife resulted. [/qb][/QUOTE]Nothing we could not handle. Today I believe indulgences are offered, period; that is, the Pope offers an indulgence (at large) for giving up a certain behavior. I can only recall it happening once during my lifetime. Scam? Now, now, if you are referring to the past indulgences most certainly involved poor intentions on both sides [Church earns money; sinner "buys" his way into heaven (as if)]. However, (I believe) it is wrong to call a contemporary indulgence a scam (if, indeed, you were. Again, if you are only refering to the abuses of Martin Luther's time I grant you that.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
