Questioning the Purchase of Indulgences
The speaker questions the logic of poor people spending all their money on buying indulgences to go to heaven and why it would be easier for the rich to avoid purgatory. They argue that historical sources, such as Aaron Swanson's book, show that the claims of poor spending on indulgences and the rich finding it easier to obtain them are demonstrably untrue.
