I stand corrected. What I should have said was that Trent forbid free thought and free press in matters of the Bible.

Trent warned against interpreting Scripture contrary to Church teaching and printing Scripture without assurance to authenticity. Given the fractalization of the Protestant Denominations, I would say this was good advice.

The Bible itself seems none too fond of "free thought ... in matters of the Bible". Consider 2 Pt 1:20-21, for example.
