the practice of the Indulgence by the Catholic Church. It was a way where one can lessen the amount
of punishment through a fee or an activity. This has caused a controversy

could be bought. Martin Luther was very
much opposed to the practice of selling Indulgences and his critic of the

Church. The Counter-Reformation made
some changes to curb the excesses of Indulgences but nonetheless this practice help
end religious unity in Western Europe.
