Those are almost universally classified as humanities. | |

| Nov 11, 2017 at 9:32 | comment | added | Dan Romik | Your second question reminded me of Georges Lemaître. He was a Catholic priest and also a famous cosmologist who came up with the idea of the big bang. If you will allow “religious scholar” to be interpreted as “scholar who was also a religious figure”, that would make a good answer to your question, but I doubt that this is what you meant. | |
