I think the group of people you're trying to describe would be lay (not clergy) and non-religious (not members of a religious order of monks, friars, nuns or sisters. Clergy can be religious or secular.) |
Goodness, yes. Sorry again. That's what I meant. But either way, if someone said that there were no nuns and no lay people teaching in a school here, we (at my parish, at least) would not know who was left, really.
