Talk:theology

Etymology
I followed Skeat (1910) except were Skeat said
 * < Middle French < Latin

there I inserted
 * < Middle French < Old French < Latin

since CNRTL (2012) shows a c.1240 attestation and Littré (1872-77) said < Provencal, Spanish, and Italian teologia < Latin. —BoBoMisiu (talk) 23:15, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Religiology or divinity as hypernyms
Because:
 * 1) not all religions are theistic (personocentic)
 * 2) not all theistic religions deem theism as their core component (for example cosmocentralism: the universe or the cosmos, -oi being more important)
