Vingt ans après la promulgation du code de droit canonique : Qu'en est-il du service des laïcs dans l'église?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The lack of ordained ministers in several parts of the world has brought about the creation of new ministerial practices, requiring an increased implication of the laity in the pastoral life of the Church ad intra. The practice has often greatly surpassed the forecasts of the universal law and one would have expected new magisterial directives. In fact, these have seemed to be restrictive of the implication of the laity rather than encouraging of new forms of collaboration between ordained and non-ordained ministers. The restrictions have appeared to stem from an apparent fear of competition between these two forms of ministry. If a new form of collaborative ministry is to see the light, the identity of both ministries - ordained and non-ordained - must be defined and understood. But this does not mean that lay ministry is to be defined and restricted to a mere suppletive role: lay ministry must be recognized as a gift to the Church and must be acknowledged as such. The article first looks into the laity's mission according to the norms of the 1983 Code in relation to the tria munera, and underlines a few problem areas. It then suggests a theological perception of lay ministry which confers its uniqueness and, with this perception in mind, it proposes new paths to be explored in the development of canonical norms governing the participation of the laity in the life of the Church and the effective consultation of laypeople in the decision-making processes.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
