I'm not sure if the crowning of Mary was ever an indulgenced activity, but if so, this event certainly racked up grace like a triple word score in the game of Scrabble. Peter's Basilica was indulgenced (the basilica had just burned down) and that one priest, John Tetzel, a preacher of this indulgence, promised an easy path to salvation, but this was not approved by the Church. The Mass and the Sacraments are not indulgenced since they are far superior to indulgences, but many prayers and many works of piety, charity, and penance are indulgenced. |
