Why would philosophers care about religion? Are they on the same
   spectrum and competing for the same spot? == Ok, so they are
   logically interchangeable? What might be other examples of
   belief systems other than philosophy and religion that are
   interchangeable (if not fully equivalent in content)? == [answer
   I got was: philosophy and religion are exhaustive] == Ok. I can
   work with that. Yes, I mean interchangeable in a human mind and
   can be changed one for another. Now, given that: Would you
   consider Theology as a mixing point between the two, and perhaps
   having a favorite philosopher/philosophy as another mixing
   point? By mixing points, I mean places where you see aspects of
   religion and philosophy in ways where the differences can
   _appear_ fuzzy rather than binary? == [I say this not to imply
   anything: I'm just thinking aloud as I go. I don't have
   preconceived notions (that I'm aware of) with this - just
   walking through it logically to see where it goes. ==
