Theology and Religious Vocations

Theology is the critical study of the nature of the divine. It is taught as an academic discipline, typically in universities and seminaries.

Theology is basically the study of deities or their scriptures in order to discover what they have revealed about themselves. While theology has turned into a secular field, religious adherents still consider theology to be a discipline that helps them live and understand concepts such as life and love and that helps them lead lives of obedience to the deities they follow or worship.
