Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the background of the discussion of the role of the laity in the Church, addressing the ideas of contemporary cultural currents that are having a significant impact on thinking about the Church and potential changes in its structure and organization. While the role of the laity has been widely discussed and a greater assumption of responsibility by the laity has been advocated, it is important that this change not take place according to the inspiration and script of ideas alien to the Church, which in certain forms can corrupt the transmission of the faith. The Church, as a result of the redefinition of certain concepts, participating in Western guilt, but also weaknesses in leadership, dangerously adopts narratives that are ideologically alien and sometimes harmful to the Church. Addressing this problem is important for defining today's involvement and responsibility of lay people in the Church.
