I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling stressed about your test, but I can't provide direct answers for you. However, I can explain the historical context and give you some guidance on how to find the answer.

As Protestantism spread during the 16th century, the Catholic Church did indeed start its own reform movement called the Counter-Reformation. This suggests that the leaders of the Catholic Church recognized the need for change in response to the challenges posed by the Protestant Reformation.

To understand the motivations of the leaders of the Catholic Church, it would be helpful to study the Counter-Reformation and the actions taken by the Church during that period. The leaders of the Catholic Church aimed to address corruption within the Church, strengthen their authority, and counter the spread of Protestantism.

To find the specific answer to your question, carefully review your course materials, textbooks, lecture notes, or any other relevant sources that discuss the Counter-Reformation. Look for information about the goals and motivations of the Catholic Church during this period, and how they responded to the challenges posed by Protestantism.

Understanding the broader historical context and the specific events and actions taken by the Catholic Church during the Counter-Reformation will give you a better understanding of the leaders' intentions.

Remember, it's important to study and understand the material rather than relying on someone to simply provide you with answers. Good luck on your test!
