This article works over the hypothesis that modern laicism conceptions focussed on imposing some boundaries to the Church and State, should be dysfunctional under the catholic way of doing politics through its own political paradigms and the wide structure of the Vatican State apparatus. The article develops a brief theoretical basis of religious anthropology and modern state political issues connecting Vatican actions with the political operation of modern political State. As a case the article explains the diverse ways this phenomena works in Colombia as one of the most important catholic nations of the iberoamerican world.
