Explain why the topic of indulgences is closely related to luther's criticism of the catholic church. your response should be about one page in length. use the internet to research any relevant background information, including the religious practices of the time and the historical context of martin luther's debate with the authorities of the roman catholic church.

Alright, this would't amount to an entire page, but this can be the thesis of the paper. This is how indulgences work: people pay the priests money (or with items) so that their sins will be "forgiven". Basically, the sacrament of confession is paid. The Bible does not instruct us to do things this way. Luther saw this as corruption and based his arguments against the Catholic Church mainly on this concept. 

Ican’t answer if you don’t give me the excerpt
