I disagree. I should be the one to choose.

Wait . . . there's an extremely obvious flaw forming in your argument.

You're just saying that to try and be clever, right?

You are right. It still seems like there should be some standard of 'too far' in regards to a child's indoctrination. Practicality hasn't ever stopped us before.

Well, I was going to bring up Dragon's Den...

However, perhaps contributers is more appropriate?

I suppose, though, really, they invest in their after-life don't they?

No wait, that was the catholic church. That was a damn good system, btw...with winners on all sides of the spectrum.

Thanks... however just giving money isn't what it is about.

You have to give the money and be repentant- the donation is a symbol of that repentance. Sacrifice, see the Parable of the Widow's coin...but yeah it works well for everyone.

Assuming you are referring to indulgences- yes we still have those. The remission of punishment for a sin that was committed (and forgiven) is a healthy thing which we in the Roman Catholic Church encourage... just we tend not to use the I word too often.

I just read up on it, it was reinstated in the mid 20th century apparently. Though you don't ask for money anymore, but faith driven activity, which I guess goes better with the modern world. Apparently you could get excommunicated before for selling them though...

You Catholics have an interesting history, you know.

I know, we're not all that bad either.

You can still give up money to gain an indulgence- but it would have to be enough to equal a sacrifice in your life. Usually charity work or such is encouraged though.
