Are you fiction? You’re not mentioned in the Bible so you must be fiction, right?

By the grace of God alone, I am mentioned in the Bible several times.

Aren't you referenced here by Paul, too?

"And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Not of works, lest any man should boast.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." -- Eph: 2:1-10

You are never once mentioned in the Bible - not by name. Yet you exist. I was right. You are not. If you were right then you would be able to post the verse that mentions you by name. You failed to do so. There is no such verse.

Now, do you have any evidence at all that popes or the Church approved of the sale of indulgences as a proper act?

No, of course not.
