Aug 12, 2014 at 13:41 comment added curiousdannii @JimG. Justify might not have been the best word, but I was really trying to ask if this is a question about new theology... which isn't on topic. A source for the ideas would help if they aren't your own.

Aug 12, 2014 at 11:48 comment added Jim G. @Zoe: I just eliminated the Martin Luther dimension of my question to make it more focused.
Aug 12, 2014 at 11:47 comment added Jim G. @curiousdannii: "Justify" is a loaded word. I'm asking for an exegesis, and if my suppositions are incorrect, then I'd like to know why.
Aug 12, 2014 at 11:45 comment added Jim G. @gideonmarx: ` The 'market' was 'essential' to the functioning of the Temple. Indulgences were 'essential' to the Church.` I've never heard this point of view, although it's certainly plausible.
Aug 12, 2014 at 11:43 comment added Jim G. @Flimzy: I just edited my question accordingly.

Aug 12, 2014 at 11:39 comment added Flimzy I think your first question is a reasonable one. I think the second one, aside from being very unclear what you mean by "reconsider", is is 100% "opinion based" and should probably be removed from the question.
Aug 12, 2014 at 10:13 comment added Zoe I think there are two questions here but they should be asked without presupposition. Of course, it would be helpful to provide how you came to that conclusion and if you have considered other verses in Bible that talks about judging and authority. 1. Is it within the Catholic faith or authority to condemn non-Catholics? & 2. Do Catholics consider Martin Luther and the Protestant Reformation like how Jesus considered the people in the temple courts? But really, there is no passive or general way to ask what you ask.
Aug 12, 2014 at 8:23 comment added curiousdannii Are you essentially asking us to justify an idea you've had?
Aug 12, 2014 at 6:59 comment added gideon marx The 'market' was 'essential' to the functioning of the Temple. Indulgences were 'essential' to the Church. Neither turned out to be all that 'essential' as both institutions survived. What is your question really?
