Read a random definition: opening the bidding

A quick definition of laity:

Term: LAITY

Definition: The laity refers to people who are not part of the clergy. This means they are not priests, pastors, or other religious leaders. Instead, they are regular members of a religious community, like a church or synagogue. The laity plays an important role in many religious traditions, often participating in worship services, volunteering, and supporting the work of the clergy.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Laity refers to people who are not part of the clergy. It is a collective term used to describe individuals who are not ordained or trained as religious leaders.

Examples:

  • Members of a church congregation who attend services but are not ordained ministers or priests are considered part of the laity.
  • A layperson may be involved in various church activities, such as volunteering, teaching Sunday school, or serving on committees.

The examples illustrate that the laity are individuals who are not part of the clergy but are still active members of a religious community. They may participate in various religious activities and support the work of the clergy, but they do not have the same level of training or authority as ordained leaders.

While representing himself in court, McKinley's sentence was reduced from 100 years to 25, a sentence he served in full. While still incarcerated, he took the LSAT, or Law School Admission Test, and applied to law school - no shit, thats impressive how much he lowered his sentence being pro say
