14 Indeed. Even if we wanted a herd specific to religion, "theology" is
15 not the best choice since I've yet to conceive of how a program can do
16 theology. Certain types of programs can inform one's theology
17 (textual studies programs based on SWORD are a good example of this),
18 but the same programs have various other uses. Humanities is a good
19 enough description.
