Do you believe you're receiving an "indulgence" from God for posting that "prayer?" Time off in purgatory by mouthing this blasphemy?

Well now isn't that interesting.. catholics get "paid" for frequent usage of particular prayers. Middle-age thinking comes to mind, no wonder they called it the "dark ages". But then much was bought and sold then to keep their coffers full. Looks like Middle-Age thinging remains intrenched in the minds of some.

I wondered why that prayer was shot out of their cannon so much...Ha! The possibility it's to gain some sort of deal with God along the way. Wonder if they keep track in a ledger or something so they can show it to Him when the day arrives?

Which is btw, what 1 Cor 3:13-7 says, that we will receive our reward if our works stand. Reward in heaven. Go read it yourself. It’s all there.
