Since i couldn't reply in the thread, i wanted to reply to few parts here. I won't answer all since the time's up , but i wanted to answer these 3 that i REALLY want to argue about
[SPOIL]
What's the proof it didn't work?
There's no more/less proof that they didn't work than they did work.
Also, if they made people feel good about themselves , why is that bad?


they didn't work since, there exists nothing like hell. Those supposedly didn't let you go to hell (if you buy them, and give church your money).
And why is that bad? People were already poor, without having to give their money away. Yes they had a choice to buy them, but since they were afraid of hell they just had to buy those.
If you'd stolen something , like your example here. The get rid of that sin they'd have to pay the amount in scrolls, that they stole and maybe extra. So there would be no logic to it what so ever.
Those scrolls (supposedly) worked more like "buy one for each of your sins".
Taught alot of the poor how to read and wright.
They never taught people to read and right, not before Martin Luther and the protestants came. That was one thing Martin Luther wanted to fight. Before Martin Luther, the Catholic church didn't teach people Latin (the language the bible was written in) so even if they had somewhere learnt reading/writing, they couldn't understand it. They wanted to be the only ones able to translate Bible to people so they could change it a bit, accordingly to their own wanting (change the translation, not the bible ofcourse)

You told me Martin Luther didn't like Catholics as they were greedy. I proved your statement was wrong.
I proved you that Martin Luther didn't like Catholics as they were greedy.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Luther said:
Martin Luther (10 November 1483 – 18 February 1546) was a German priest and professor of theology who initiated the Protestant Reformation. Strongly disputing the claim that freedom from God's punishment of sin could be purchased with money

The 2 main things Martin Luther wanted was the fact that sins couldn't be "freed" with money and that people should be taught to read and write themselves, so they could understand the Bible themselves, as Bible should directly give answers to people, not through any church.[/SPOIL]

Non, you do realise that Matrin Luther quote shows be didn't like the fact you could buy away your sins.
Nothing to do with being greedy.
Anyway round ended.
Goodluck.

yes, but the fact that the church sold things which supposedly take away your sins, shows that they were greedy. They came up with the idea when they "needed" more money. Anyway u said their like the government, you do agree that the government is kinda greedy too right? i mean have you seen how much money they get for making up a new law once in a while (im not talking about everyone in all governments, but i mean theres alot of people like that too up there)

but yes round eded.
GL to you too.

don't forget they make laws that charge more money to deter people from the product, like alcohol laws.

Matt won because you argued not only invalid, but often incorrect points. While the Catholic church did sell "Indulgences", not all religions did. And since the topic was NOT the Catholic church's past policies, but the effect of religion on society, you lost points for that.

You also held to the fact that a "Jew" had to belong to a certain religion, when this is not the case.

However, Matt also had some mistaken points in his posts, so it was close. However, matt did provide both better reasons to support his point, and also flustered you into making yourself look like a fool.

i know we had this convo in skype but

i didn't say jew-s belonged to a certain religion, i said most jew-s do

but that-s actually what i wanted to hear

hearing "you lost, haha" from judges is just lame after something, it-s the opinions and stuff what i wanna hear
