  Abstract:  The word theologia means literary discourse or speaking about God. The man from the beginning put the questions about God or about a superior creature of all the world. There is a saying that asserts that every human being is a philosopher when begins to raise questions about reality, world, himself, etc. But when a human being becomes a theologian? When is he asking himself or others about God only? (i.e. Who is God?, Where is God?, How is God?) Could the man do theology when he is speaking about other realities? The point is, that we are not doing theology only we are speaking directly about God, but when we connect our world, our experience with him also. In other words we do not need to begin our theology immediately from God to be a genuine theology, but to relate our realities, experiences to God and explain better in and through him (i.e. Rhaner, Lonergan, Tilich, Schillebeeckx, Sobrino). Therefore, there is a kind of connection between the philosophical question and theological question.
