The Gregorian Reform marked a significant turnover of the hitherto common order and the religious forms. The change evoked by this reform cannot be regarded as revolutionary, it is rather a continuous transition process. The period of investiture controversy was more than an era of conflicts between ecclesiastical and secular rulers, but of efforts to eliminate the principal deficiencies afflicting the Church. Based on an analysis of information sources in the 2nd half of the 11th century, an appeal for return to the original conditions of the Church on the territory of the Italian Peninsula not only among the clergymen but also among the laymen became apparent. In particular, the condemnation of simony had a vital impact. Radical changes in the understanding of sovereign power and the challenge to the secular world, which controlled ecclesiastical appointments, did not go unnoticed.

The reflection on the present position of Christians not carrying out any ministerial office is based on an analysis of the historical development of the relationship between clergy and laity. Besides a brief historical overview, the paper includes critical reflection on this issue in the context of the 20th century Roman-Catholic Church. Special attention is given to the role of Catholics who have received an academic education in theology and do not belong to the clergy, yet participate in the Church's life.

In 2007 the Department of Sociology of the Philosophical faculty of the University of Trnava together with the support of the Theology faculty of the same university held the first Slovak- wide representative research of catholic religiosity in Slovakia. The purpose was to improve the quality of pastoral theology lectures at all the Theology faculties in Slovakia. The sociological analysis is followed by our pastoral-theological reflections based on the research. The research showed that the life of Slovak Catholics is on the one hand strongly sacramentalised but on the other hand this is not adequately transformed into life in their community. Parochial community does not always fulfil its role to be the dense fibre of inter-human and true communal relationships where the life of faith is reflected in common thinking and where the daily practice is the real expression of faith and of freedom. Consequently as a result of the research some improvements of pastoral theology as well as pastoral practice must follow. Parochial communities should not have more than five thousand residents so that people could walk to their Church. It is very important to have an intensive cooperation with the laity in place in order to achieve a better reception of the Christian initiation sacraments which in turn will improve the life of parochial community. Especially when we consider various activities for small children, youth and family groups, that are not closed in themselves but have their own apostolic dynamism expressed especially in parochial charity. The support for the apostolic mission of the Church within a parochial community is a sign of mature Christianity in that community.
