Sažetak

In the second half of the 20th century, both in the Catholic Church and in Croatia, the appearance of new lay ecclesiastic movements of which the largest number is active today, was noted. The causes for the appearance of these movements are multi-fold, but one of the most important ones is the Council's opening of the Church toward laymen. In this study, at the representative sample of followers of lay Church movements, we have researched their opinion on the appropriateness of the Church's answers to numerous current issues which are not and may not be put aside by the Church. We were interested in finding out how the Council's thought really lived in the Catholic Church in Croatia. The issues referred to the appropriateness of the Church's answers to moral and spiritual needs of contemporary men, as well as to family and social problems. At the end, a direct question was put about how much the Church has really done in terms of specific implementation of a Council's thought. When answering, the respondents mostly opted for the »middle option«, that is, they were satisfied, but at the same time, they were dissatisfied with the Church activities. They were most dissatisfied with the Church's answers to the current social problems, followed by problems of family life, while they were most satisfied with the answer to moral and spiritual needs of individuals. The results were analysed form the aspect of two independent variables (gender and age affiliation). It has been established that in the majority of cases, there were no statistically important differences in answers, except in the situation of combining the age affiliation with the issue on moral and spiritual needs of individuals, and with the issue of problems of family life.
