If I recall my history correctly, one of the reasons Martin Luther got all ticked off with the R.C. Church in the first place was the "selling of indulgences" - forgiveness and absolution had a price.

Still does as far as I know.... Forgiveness and absolution usually require about a 10% tithe... (but wait, you also get a Catholic School education thrown in).... I think the going rate for just forgiveness is about 6.5% and absolution rigth around 5.5%, they are offered as a packeag for 10% and you can get "the Ultimate" which includes guaranteed salvation for 25%...
what a deal...
Myself, I was thinking about the econo package where they get the Forgiveness, absolution and salvation along with a nifty little keychain knife/flashlight combo for right at a buck ninety nine....
