"The crucified Jesus is the great 'indulgence' that the Father has offered humanity through the forgiveness of sins and the possibility of living as children in the Holy Spirit."
—Pope John Paul II, General Audience, Wednesday, 29 September 1999

"God’s fatherly love does not rule out punishment, even if the latter must always be understood as part of a merciful justice that re-establishes the violated order for the sake of man’s own good."
—Pope John Paul II, General Audience, Wednesday, 29 September 1999

"[Indulgences are] the expression of the Church’s full confidence of being heard by the Father when—in view of Christ’s merits and, by his gift, those of Our Lady and the saints—she asks him to mitigate or cancel the painful aspect of punishment by fostering its medicinal aspect through other channels of grace."
—Pope John Paul II, General Audience, Wednesday, 29 September 1999

"[Indulgences] particularly show our faith in God’s mercy and in the marvellous reality of communion, which Christ has achieved by indissolubly uniting the Church to himself as his Body and Bride."
—Pope John Paul II, General Audience, Wednesday, 29 September 1999

"The Rock still stands, though each generation declares that the Church is dead. Yet [the Church and the Papacy are] still there as if by a miracle, or rather as a miracle, not merely as an idea but as an unconquerable reality. . . . Those who challenge or reject the office of Peter disobey Christ and His Gospel and tear apart the unity that Christ has made."
—Fr. Balthasar, The Office of Peter and the Structure of the Church

"The Church is one because the episcopate is one with all its bishops holding it severally and conjointly... For St. Cyprian, the Lord built His entire Church on one man, Peter; so every local church is built on one only."
—James Likoudis, The Divine Primacy of the Bishop of Rome and Modern Eastern Orthodoxy

"Our Lord frequently told His apostles that the first place among them was to be of service to the rest: and can we dare to say that He Himself conferred upon St. Peter an empty honor?"
—Dom John Chapman, O.S.B., Bishop Gore and the Catholic Claims

"A mere primacy of honor... cannot serve as a desired center of communion for a worldwide Church, especially one always threatened by bishop-led schism, and heresy, as we know all too well from the pages of Church history."
—James Likoudis, The Divine Primacy of the Bishop of Rome and Modern Eastern Orthodoxy

"[H]istory testifies that Eastern bishops who resisted, in principle, the divine primacy of the Bishop of Rome during the “first thousand years” were heretics and schismatics, not those who would be orthodox."
—James Likoudis, The Divine Primacy of the Bishop of Rome and Modern Eastern Orthodoxy

Doing evil for "content" can help set you on the wide path towards hell, all too common on the internet.

"Significantly, in the New Testament, the keys are attributed only to Christ and Peter. They are the symbol of supreme authority. In the Book of Revelation, Christ declares of Himself, 'I am the first and the last, and he who lives; I was dead, and behold, I am living forever more; and I have the keys of death and of hell' (1:17–18)."
—James Likoudis, The Divine Primacy of the Bishop of Rome and Modern Eastern Orthodoxy

"Just as the house of David in the Old Testament had a majordomo or chief steward who governed on behalf of the king, so Christ’s Church would possess a chief steward who would possess the keys of the kingdom of heaven, so that whatever he would bind and loose on earth would be bound and loosed in heaven. Peter alone is promised this office of majordomo and chief ruler over the kingdom of God on earth, the Church."
—James Likoudis, The Divine Primacy of the Bishop of Rome and Modern Eastern Orthodoxy

"But the keys are not given to all, for they remain in the possession of him alone whom Jesus designated the chief and head of the Apostolic College. So when the power of binding and loosing is given to all the apostles, it is given to them as a body united with Peter, who, as their visible head, possesses the plenitude of authority symbolized by the keys he uniquely bears."
—James Likoudis, The Divine Primacy of the Bishop of Rome and Modern Eastern Orthodoxy

Pope Francis on transgenderism: "This [gender ideology] goes against what is natural."

To gain a partial indulgence you must be in a state of grace at least at the time when the indulgenced work is completed. A plenary indulgence can only be received once per day under ordinary circumstances. In addition to being in a state of grace, to receive a plenary indulgence you must also:

- Have the interior disposition of complete detachment from sin, even venial sin
- Have sacramentally confessed your sins
- Receive the Holy Eucharist
- Pray for the intentions of the Supreme Pontiff

Even if you don't think you have met the criteria for a plenary indulgence, such as being completely detached from all sin, it is still worth attempting to gain such an indulgence. In our prayerful attempts to receive this complete remission of the temporal punishment due to us for our already forgiven sins we grow closer in God and become closer to being detached from sin.
