Identify two specific ways the Catholic Church tried to stop the spread of Protestantism.

Answered by Bot
One way the Catholic Church tried to stop the spread of Protestantism was through the Counter-Reformation, which involved reaffirming Catholic doctrine and disciplining those who deviated from it. Another way was through the use of the Inquisition, which was a court system that identified and punished heretics, including Protestants.

One way the Catholic Church tried to stop the spread of Protestantism was by prohibiting and censoring Protestant literature. The church banned books and pamphlets and created a list of prohibited books, called the Index Librorum Prohibitorum, which included many Protestant writings. Another way was by using force and violence, such as the persecution of Protestants during the Spanish Inquisition and the Thirty Years' War.
