Opposition to theology; a philosophical or intellectual stance that rejects or opposes formal religious doctrine and study.
From anti- (against) + theology (the study of God and religion). This term emerged as an explicit counterposition to theological thinking during the Age of Reason.
Antitheology isn't just atheism—it's a whole framework of thinking that says studying God through traditional religion is fundamentally flawed, much like how some people today practice 'anti-psychiatry.'
