Usage notes
- Usually an uncountable field of study: studiare teologia. Use a plural only for different theological systems: le teologie contemporanee.
- More academic and institutional than religione or fede. Teologia is scholarly reflection, not personal belief or religious practice.
- Common in university and church contexts; sounds formal in everyday speech.
