Group nonclerical is a term used to describe a group of PEOPLE who are not part of the clergy. This includes laypeople, or those who are not ordained religious ministers. The term 'LAITY' is often used to refer to this group, and it is derived from the Greek word laos, meaning 'PEOPLE'. LAITY can be found in many different religions, including Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. They are typically responsible for providing support to the clergy and helping to spread the faith.
