smell the coffee" (people started to
return to learning/studying things
again)

loyalty to their political and social
community - 6Counter Reformation BackgroundBACKGROUND:
Since the Catholic Church is in
BIG trouble (losing people to other
religions), they have to do
something to "stop the bleeding"
They decide to launch the
CounterReformation
The first step the Church does is
to call a HUGE MEETING in 1545
in Italy (they call it the Council of
Trent) - 7What was the first step program made by the council of trent?1st Step: Clean Things Up
1) stop the sale of indulgences
2) they make the clergy take
seminars to make them literate (so
they can read/write)
3) Rules for the clergy are strictly
enforced (no gambling, drinking,
etc)
4) Clergy have to actually live in
the area they look after - 8what was the second step program made by council of trent?2nd Step: Spread the Catholic
Religion
to spread the positive aspects of
the Catholic Church they:
a) create the Jesuit Order (a
committee that creates schools/
colleges that spread the Catholic
faith
b) create the Ursulines (Order for
Women that help teach young
children about the Catholic faith)
If these did not work, they also
created the Sacred Congregation
of the Holy Office (created a
special committee whose job was
to hunt for "sinners" and "re
educate" them through torture,
burning books, etc - 9what was the result after the 1st and 2nd step made by council of trent?The Church slowly
stopped the flood of people
leaving the Church and it became
stronger once again. - 10what does reformation mean? A break within the Roman
Catholic Church and the creation
of the Protestant Church - 11THE EVENTS THAT LEAD TO THE ACTUAL REFORMATION (SPLIT) We already know that many Catholics mad at their Church. Here are the events that lead to the Reformation:1) man by the name of John
Wycliffe starts to challenge the
church (first person to do this). He
says:
a) people should be able to get
salvation directly from God not
from the Pope (cut out the middle
person)
b) feels that the bible should be
translated into different languages
so that others can read it and
teach it to themselves (remember,
Church only "thing" that can teach
about God)
c) says to get rid of indulgences
*those that follow Wycliffe called
Lollards (negative word meaning
"to mutter or mumble"
Result: Wycliffe inspires others to
talk out about the ChurchIntro part 2.notebook

2) A man by the name of Jan Hus
starts to also criticize the Church
(he writes things down though)
Result: The Church realizes they
have a problem on their hands
(they need to stop this negative
publicity)
They decide to make Jan Hus an
example to those who say/write
negative things about the Church
(they burn him at the stake!
OUCH)Intro part 2.notebook
