Don't deprecate or trivialise Theology as a degree subject. Perhaps if it were "rebranded" as "Wisdom" it would be more contemporary.
For centuries the imposition of superstition was branded as "wisdom", on pain of death preceded by ghastly torture for anyone who questioned the crappy dogma that was handed down from a pulpit.

We still fight religious wars militarily: currently an Abrahamic religion is in the cross-hairs --- not for the first time!

We "send a strong message" by immolating them, not at the stake but at the push of a button, with missiles which have biblical names such as Hellfire and Brimstone.

The Church of England has been described as the Tory party at prayer. This Minister of Defence has been appointed for his beliefs, not for his ministerial experience.

Gawd help us all!
