Leo made the case already. You just refuse to see it. That’s a bad historian that doesn’t understand history.

“Leo made the case already. You just refuse to see it. That’s a bad historian that doesn’t understand history.”

Leo X NEVER authorized the selling of indulgences. There’s not even one document from his pontifical office that says he did. The preaching of indulgences is not the selling of indulgences and the selling of indulgences was forbidden by canon law.

I understand history and researched this in great detail years ago. You have never read a single book on the subject. You’re never read a single scholarly article on the subject. All you have ever done is follow your programming like a good little drone. You’re doing it now.

It would be like a person is convicted by a judge and sentenced to the death penalty and the executioner carried it out. The judge says, “I didn’t kill anyone.” That’s how our FRoman friends defend their church from accusations they killed “heretics”. Yeah, it doesn’t convince me either.
