I apologize for the incorrect response. The purpose of the Council of Trent was to address the issues raised by the Protestant Reformation and to reform and reaffirm Catholic doctrine and practices. It aimed to counteract the spread of Protestantism by clarifying and reaffirming Catholic teachings, addressing abuses within the Church, and establishing guidelines for religious practices.
