Church law (canon 229) gives laypeople the right to receive doctrinal instruction at the highest level, as well as the right to teach the sacred sciences: theology, philosophy, canon law, scripture and Church history. A canonical mission or mandate is required to teach the sacred sciences. This right refers to both men and women.
