Is it real gold?

[–] Mubelotix@jlai.lu 24 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Sure. The church was super reach in middle age, they collected taxes on everyone and their monasteries were working hard and were very efficient. Also people made a lot of donations in hope of staying out of hell

Also people ~~made a lot of donations in hope of staying~~ bought their way out of hell.

Indulgences were literally sold, those weren't considered donations.
