from the Code of Canon Law....
Can. 212 §1.
Conscious of their own responsibility, the Christian faithful are bound to
follow with Christian obedience those things which the sacred pastors, inasmuch
as they represent Christ, declare as teachers of the faith or establish as
rulers of the Church.
§2. The Christian faithful are free to make known to
the pastors of the Church their needs, especially spiritual ones, and their
desires.
§3. According to the knowledge, competence, and
prestige which they possess, they have the right and even at times the duty to
manifest to the sacred pastors their opinion on matters which pertain to the
good of the Church and to make their opinion known to the rest of the Christian
faithful, without prejudice to the integrity of faith and morals, with
reverence toward their pastors, and attentive to common advantage and the
dignity of persons.
