#idk one definition says theology stems from sacred texts which the elves don't have
Text
To be quite honest I strongly doubt the Eldar would have any distinction between philosophy and theology.
#had a whole dissertation written up in the tags but I've deleted it because I don't really understand the distinction myself#I think if you are a believer you kind of naturally mix the two#idk one definition says theology stems from sacred texts which the elves don't have#(unless the ainulindale?)#but they do have the word of divine beings walking among them so idk if the same measures should be used for them#in any case the existence of God etc is an obvious assumption with their philosophy#or if anyone hypothetises otherwise it's like the very out there philosophers who ask 'what if we're not real' or whatever#my post#peoples of arda#Silmarillion#silm
