LAITY AND FORMATION IN THE SACRED SCIENCES - FR NORBERT JANSEN (G.M.A. JANSEN)



       "Furthermore, it is to be hoped that many laymen will receive an appropriate formation in the sacred sciences, and that some will develop and deepen these studies by their own labours. In order that such persons may fulfill their proper function, let it be recognized that all the faithful, clerical and lay, possess a lawful freedom of inquiry and of thought, and the freedom to express their minds humbly and courageously about those matters in which they enjoy competence."

Fr G.M.A. Jansen. (Norbert Jansen OP). p 8, Pro Veritate Vol VII No. 2 Jun 15. The Secularisation of the Church. June 15 1968
