Art 1: An office is a religious function recognized either in this canon law, or in the internal regulations of the Roman congregations, or in the Rules of a religious Order recognized by the Curia.
Art 2: One is only considered as occupying an office when the nomination or election has respected the described procedures.
Art 3.1: The cleric is one who occupies a religious office, and the soldier is one who holds an office in the “Holy Armies,” as opposed to the faithful, who do not occupy any office.
Art 3.2: To be considered as soldiers of the Church, the members of the military orders form part of the manpower of the Holy Aristotelian armies, those who are set individually or collectively under the orders of the General Staff of the Holy Armies.
Without exemption of the Primat, only the military clerics of the Church may carry weapons other than ceremonial ones linked to their social status.
Art 4: The faithful may not administer the sacraments, and the clerics may only administer those authorized by their office.
Art 5: Only the faithful, married or not, or a priest can occupy an office, but not a heterodox or a simple believer.
Art 6: The social status of theologist (OOC: level 3 of the Church way) is not a religious status but is necessary to occupy certain offices.
Art 7: The administration of the sacraments may not be profited from, in any way, neither by the cleric nor by the faithful nor by any third person.
Art 8: The offices within the Aristotelian Church are gathered in three categories: principal, secondary and tertiary.
Art 9: The principal offices constitute the hierarchical base of the Aristotelian Church.
Art 10: A single cleric can occupy only one principal office at a time and must choose as soon as possible the one he or she keeps if it occupies more than one of them.
Art 11: The secondary offices are those complementary to the Aristotelian Church, to which the offices of the congregations belong.
Art 12: A single cleric can occupy only two secondary offices at the same time and must choose as soon as possible those he or she keeps if it exceeds this limitation.
Art 13: The tertiary offices are those related to the religious orders or not entering one of the first 2 categories.
Art 14: The cumulation of the tertiary offices is determined in the regulations of each order, as well as the sanctions in the event of prohibited cumulation.
Art 15: The clerics occupying an office of bishop or cardinal carry the title of prelate, because they are the guides of the Church and are entitled to special treatment, due to the acts of worthiness by which their office is taken.
Pending that the offices be clearly defined, one particular proposal for their distribution.
- those within the orders, according to the Rule of each order.
