(Latin: laicus, lay) <\/p>\n
Exclusive administration of the affairs of the church by lay-men. Anti-clerical proponents of a separation of Church and State laicize, by measures of governmental supervision and control, functions that for ages belonged to the Church: education, marriage, hospitals, and charity organizations and maintenance of parishes, churches, convents and other religious institutions. Historically it appeared under various forms: Gallicanism, Febronianism, Josephinism. In more recent times laicization has also been called secularization, e.g., the anti-religious laws of France and Mexico . A laicistic program, denying the value of religious ideals for the civic, political, and social life of man, prevents the Church from functioning beyond the vestibule of her temples of worship. <\/p>\n
