After the Reformation of Luther, Calvin and Zwingli etc. The Catholic Church counter reformed. This was done with the Council of Trent and its three meetings. St Ignatius whom im sure u know wasn't a follower, saw what had happened to the Catholic Church in Rome and put together the 'Jesuits". The Jesuits were a counter-reforming order who took up vows of poverty, and weren't attached to any local governments so would not be corrupt at all. They re-converted back all Lutherans and external followers of the Catholic Church, they did this be re-affirming beliefs, teachings, and with the Counter-Reformation and no corruption. The Catholic Church separated itself from other religions. This may be seen as a negative factor, but thanks to St. Ignatius who reformed the Jesuits 13 000 Jesuits followers joined within the next 5 years.
