A papal pardon cannot remove guilt. Not even St. Peter could remove guilt. Even so, St. Peter and the pope possess great gifts of grace. It is blasphemy to say that the insignia of the cross is of equal value with the cross of Christ. Bishops who authorise such preaching will have to answer for it.
Pardoners make the intelligent appear disrespectful because of the pope s position.
Indulgences bought for the dead should be re-paid by the pope. Evil men must not buy their salvation when a poor man, who is a friend of God, cannot. The pope should re-build St. Peter s with his own money. To suppress the above is to expose the church for what it is and to make true Christians unhappy. All those who say there is no problem must go.
