indulgence is "a way to reduce the amount of punishment one has to undergo for sins"[1] which may reduce either or both of the penance required after a sin has been forgiven, or after death, the time to be spent in Purgatory. The Catechism of the Catholic Church describes an indulgence as "a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful Christian who is duly disposed gains under certain prescribed conditions through the action of the Church which, as the minister of redemption, dispenses and applies with authority the treasury of the satisfactions of Christ and the saints".[2]

The recipient of an indulgence must perform an action to receive it. This is most often the saying (once, or many times) of a specified prayer, but may also include the visiting of a particular place, or the performance of specific good works.

Indulgences were introduced to allow for the remission of the severe penances of the early Church and granted at the intercession of Christians awaiting martyrdom or at least imprisoned for the faith.[3] They draw on the Treasury of Merit accumulated by Christ's superabundantly meritorious sacrifice on the cross and the virtues and penances of the saints.[4] They are granted for specific good works and prayers[4] in proportion to the devotion with which those good works are performed or prayers recited.[5]

If you can pirate electricity like the "piracy makes a copy" image that floats around then you have broken physics or are otherwise an all powerful being.
I pirate electricity via quantum entanglement.

Now I have been an oxygen thief for many years but this potential to become an air pirate intrigues me.
Is it at all related to the following?

I used to pirate everything I could find on stolen internet, and if I could have found a way not to pay rent or the electric bill, I would have done that too.

I don't think I would ever actually physically steal anything though; the risk is way too high for that, although I have considered it many times.
