The correct answer is Chaucer criticizes the notion that divine forgiveness

depends on giving money.

Explanation:

In this excerpt from The Canterbury Tales, the author Geoffrey Chaucer indirectly refers to the sale of indulgence or the way priests and other religious leaders pardoned people for their sins based on money. This is mentioned in "My holy pardon here can save you all... as you make offerings of gold and silver coin..." because he illustrates how money or offerings were a condition for forgiveness and for people to go to heaven "you shall enter to the bliss of heaven". Moreover, this is a satire because Chaucer uses humor to criticize the practices of the Catholic church.

Maybe consider C but it's highly likely its B.

What is the relation of your soul to your body​
katovenus [111]

Answer:

It is the soul's body, and nothing else. The whole bodily condition, with all its implications, positive and negative, is assumed by the soul as its own. The soul cannot be said to depend upon the body, but it can be said to have assumed as its own a bodily condition.
