It is a common misconception that you must be religious to participate in diploma courses in theology. Theology diploma courses investigate, in a scholarly manner, the life and times depicted in the Bible and the meanings of prophesies. Diploma courses in theology are fascinating for anyone, not just religious practitioners.
Even for those students who are not students of theology, religion or spirituality can make a big difference to happiness, mental health and stress levels. Spirituality isn’t necessarily found in religion, for many people it is in a sense of community or camaraderie. For some this can be achieved through sports affiliations or club memberships that encourage a sense of working or creating together toward a common goal.
