<span>It is also known as the Counter Reformation.
This was done to clean up the image of the church after Rodrigo Borgia.
Rodrigo Borgia (Pope Alexander VI) Had basically destroyed the Catholic Church.
It was ripe with corruption. At this time they also started holding
seminaries to teach the young priests they had the actual meaning of the
church. They started new orders or sects. These where brought on to
purify the church more from the worldly excesses of the secular
Renaissance church. It also involved spiritual movements whose ministry
focused on interior conversion to Christ, the deepening of prayer and
commitment to God's will. </span>
Four of the five listed items were goals of the French Revolution:
- 1> writing a constitution
- 2> ending absolute rule
- 4> protecting individual rights
- 5> ending the class system
The only item listed which was not sought by the Revolution in France was "lowering taxes for the rich." I suppose that could be true if by "the rich" you only meant rich merchants of the bourgeoisie class, who had been paying a hefty share of taxes. But "the rich" also included the whole class of the aristocracy (the "Second Estate") in France, as well as church leaders (the "First Estate"), who were exempt from most taxes. The 98% of the population that made up the "Third Estate" (commoner class) paid the nation's taxes in support of the aristocracy and monarchy, with the church always viewed as an exempt group. The Revolution sought to end the absolute rule of the king, end the class system which blocked all but the clergy and aristocracy from true political rights, and protect the individual rights of all French citizens. To do so, one of their goals as soon as the Revolution began was to formulate a constitution that would protect the rights which they had outlined in their initial revolutionary document, <em>A Declaration on the Rights of Man and Citizen </em>(1789).
