people paid indulgences to lessen their punishment in purgatory
in countries that are like 90% catholic like the philippines they were definitely an issue
infact had they just listened to luther the reforms would've been done and the church would've merely grown stronger
one of filipino national heroes like Jose Rizal even wrote a book that criticized this particular issue
the issue comes up when the church became increasingly stubborn to change
indulgences themselves aren't necessarily monetary
they are essentially something you do to forgive your sins
like a sign of repentance essentially
that was the idea
but because that can mean just about anything
but some churches abused that
things like donating to the church was an indulgence
the issue was the monetary use of them not the concept itself
infact confessions still have a form of it but they don't always call it the same thing
Anywho if the west was more orthodox/fundamental with the scripture otherwise known as a literal interpretation, christian women would wear veils in churches
*Anyhow?
Anywho is also correct
yes
Anywho is classified as slang
Pretty much a misspelling

Do you have a political test result? It's common for me to ask for those as a form to get insight on people
