Doctrinal Theology
The word theology always means discourse or speech about God. But which God is meant and what does this God do? Plato, in his Republic, assigns theologia to the poets (379a5); by theology he means narratives about the gods and theogonies. Aristotle contrasts the "theologians," who offer mythological explanations of the world, with the "philosophers," or "physiologists," who look for the explanation of things within things themselves.
