@emlynaddison Proper use of "theistic" is "god-related", "theological" is "god-studing".

@emlynaddison Theology studies theories abt existence/non-existence of god/s &their attributes
#Atheism@Stooshie @dead2god1@MindForgedOne -
@InbornAtheism Then "theology" is a good word for its study; but "atheist" still caters theistic primacy@Stooshie @dead2god1@MindForgedOne
