train young boys for the priesthood accompanied

The establishment of modern seminary institutions was a direct outcome of Roman Catholic reforms of the Counter-Reformation after the Council of Trent.  This reform insisted on the enrichment of the training of clergy by way of creating seminaries as live-in institutions which would be below the primary watch of elderly clergy.  The creation of secondary seminaries to train young boys for the priesthood accompanied this original movement.  A seminary model called the Tridentine was that of a live in monastic community where lifestyle and supplication were closely supervised and Online theology degree adjusted as a way to reclaiming pre-Reformation ill-treatment among the clergy.  The seminaries were very much in contrast to the more loose and unbound life styles of the universities.   There followed a much greater stress was set on personalized discipline as well as the education of philosophy to train for theology.  Protestant crusaders of the day declined this approach.
