Some have argued that the laity are not like monks, and therefore cannot be expected to pray the liturgy of the hours. While many are prevented from doing so because of their life situation, do we want to say that the ideal therefore should exclude praying the liturgy of the hours? Would we want to say that deep study of the bible and lectio divina are not proper to the laity, because they are too busy for it?
