Of course that would be Johann Tetzel.
Had the scapular been invented then? I can't but think he'd've loved that. Just think: a garment that GUARANTEES that merely by wearing it, one is saved from Hell's fires.
The spirit of Tetzel lives.

Sorry, but you didn't phrase your answer in the form of a question ...
Good luck finding anything that says that merely (notice the word: you used it, I didn't) by wearing a scapular, anyone can get to heaven ... as though an unrepentent sinner could waltz into heaven by virtue of a piece of cloth around his neck.
A scapular no more guarantees a Catholic heaven than reciting the sinner's prayer guarantees a Protestant heaven.
You still have to lead a Christian life.
Don't believe everything you read on James White's website.
No. Scapular was given to us hundreds of years before (200 at least). The scapular is also not permission to go out and commit mortal sin.
