Theology and Religious Studies

Theology and Religious Studies explore the nature of faith, belief systems, and spiritual practices across cultures. Theology focuses on understanding specific religions' teachings, doctrines, and divine concepts, often from an insider’s perspective. Religious Studies takes a broader, academic approach, examining religions as social and cultural phenomena, analyzing their history, rituals, and impact on society without necessarily endorsing any particular belief. Both fields aim to deepen understanding of human spirituality, how religions shape identities and values, and their roles in shaping civilizations.
