Now it is sin to sell indulgences, because the Church has prohibitied it. However, the Church still uses indulgences, you just purchase them with good works excluding alms giving. So you can recieve an indulgence for praying or reading your Bible or doing acts of charity etc. You just can not recieved an official indulgence for giving money, even though the Church still recognizes this as a good work. Does that make sense?No
