1. Lemony
2. Parsimony
3. Testimony?
4. Antimony
5. Avgolemony?
6. Persimmony - is that the answer in your hint?
And they all share the -mony ending...

Uselessness: all correct except number 3. So what is needed is a word ending in 'mony' that means trading in indulgences.

Simony.
Oh, duh! Simony!
One. Minute. Too. Late. Argh. ;-)
Mollusque: Excellent! Martin Luther would be proud of you.
uselessness: Don't feel bad. You got most of them first time around.
Guess it's time to whip up quiz #3. maybe tomorrow.
I like these a lot. This second one was easier than the first one, which is a good thing. :-) I much prefer this difficulty level.
