Knowledge of a Theology of the Lay before, during and after the Council. Developing awareness for the necessity of a gender-equitable theological discourse today.
The Second Vatican Council has developed a comprehensive Theology of the Lay facilitating a theological equity of every baptised person in laity. The texts will be analysed with focus on their historical origin and their development. Could such an analysis lead to a gender-equitable theologcal discourse today?
