"I wasn't the one who believed you could pay money to get your love ones out of purgatory.
There are numerous calls for alms giving in Scripture. The myth is that the Catholic Church has never claimed to know anything about how long or short anyone's time in purgatory is in general, much less in a specific person’s case.
"It kind of makes you wonder which Pope was the "infallible" sort, doesn't it?"
Again, as I posted earlier, there have only been two instances of a Pope speaking infallibly. In neither instance did it have anything to do with protecting pilgrims to the Holy Land.
"I'd suggest a review of the seven churches of Revelations."
Since you have not denied that you have the gift of infallible interpretation of Scripture perhaps you could share with us who exactly are the seven churches in revelation.
Hey, Alex! Here is another opportunity for you to prance and gloat over the zotting of Bronx2. Harley screwed up and pinged him.
I give my sources unlike many Catholics who just recite one father or another to suit their interest. What is really foolishness is for Catholics to think they know the Church views and yet never have spent any time reading the Catholic encyclopedia New Advent.

That wasn't the issue. The issue was paying for someone to get out of purgatory. How many scripture verses says that?

Does this include the Pope who declared that what he was saying was infallible? That means there was only one other Pope left who spoke infallibly. I hope that was Peter.

I'm not aware of who Bronx2 is. He was in your post and as a courtesy I ping everyone in the post. So if I "screwed" up it was only because I was mimicking you.
