Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -By the 1300s, many Catholics felt that the Church had become too worldly and corrupt. Too frequently, Church officials failed to live up to their role as spiritual leaders. For example, priests, monks, and nuns made vows, or solemn promises, not to marry or have children, but many broke these vows.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Radical Reformation was the response to what was believed to be the corruption in both the Roman Catholic Church and the Magisterial Reformation. Beginning in Germany and Switzerland in the 16th century, the Radical Reformation developed radical Protestant churches throughout Europe.

Detailed explanation-3: -The purpose of the Counter/Catholic Reformation was to end corruption, return to traditional teachings, and to strengthen the church in an attempt to stop its members from converting. Pope Paul III called the Council of Trent in 1545 to institution these reforms.
