    Nicole Secic wrote a letter to the Pope complaining about the Catholic Church's use of indulgences to collect money from citizens. She argues that the Church cares more about money and power than the people, and that their sale of indulgences only encourages more sin so they can profit further. Removing indulgences, she claims, would help the Church earn back trust and support from the community.
