Theology
Theology is a field of philosophy-centred knowledge in which religious assumptions and apologetics are discussed. Historically it was most associated with the Christian faith, though later the study of all religions — especially Islam and Judaism — became part of it. Systematic and rational study of religion, its influence and the nature of religious truth is theology; its widely discussed subjects include God, humanity, the universe, liberation and eschatology.
