what would be an awesome school to go to if i wanted to major in theology or history of religion?

Answer 1

Any University will do fine, even the Parochial ones.

I would avoid fundamentalist colleges because you will find a mixture of Professors that will teach you completely contradictory things.

The funny thing is that most Professors in Seminary actually don't believe in a literal translation of the bible, and don't believe that Jesus was a real figure. They have too much information about the real history of Christianity to enable them to maintain that faith based belief. Instead most of them believe that religion is required for society to maintain order.

Its really eye opening. I went through 2 years of seminary in a rigid religious setting and was dumbfounded to find out that most of the professors and Doctors of Theology, didn't even believe in the reality of the religion they followed and taught about.

Answer 2

This depends entirely on which religion you want your theology degree in. Catholics would go to one place, Protestants to another. History of religion could be studied at any college with a good Humanities department. Look at a list on line and then write for their catalogs and see which one looks best for you.

Answer 3

Those are both two very different lines of study, and you'd also need to be more specific about what religion and/or what denomination you'd want to be studying.

Answer 4

Liberty University has an outstanding program.

Answer 5

hey young girl...please enroll into something that will help you in your life....why are you wasting your time, money and energy in learning something that is purely man made and nothing but progression of human thoughts on a wrong track.

It is as useless as doing a master's research in Harry Potter, it will give you the feeling that you have learned something but at the end it will be all empty...sorry for my unasked for advice.

Answer 6

I don't know the name of it, but its Rod Parsley's .
