Absolutions

I believe Megadeth predicted this one:


That's right... the Catholic church has decided to reinstate indulgences.

For those unfamiliar... this was the giving of absolution for sins that the Pope would grant if you paid the Catholic church.  It was essentially buying your way to heaven.  It was one of the primary reasons Martin Luther caused the split of Christianity forming the Protestant side of Christian denomination.  If you look closely at the side of the podium you can see the cost for each sin.   Nice one Dave.
