AI overview
Simony is the practice of buying or selling church positions and sacred things for money, named after Simon Magus in the Bible who tried to pay for spiritual powers. The term matters because it describes a corruption of religious authority—treating spiritual roles and blessings as commodities to be traded rather than as gifts or responsibilities to be earned through faith and merit.
