Abstract :
Practical terminology is a nascent and somewhat ambiguous term, with at least three conceivable meanings: 1. Focusing on the doctrinal issues needed by today's generation and eliminating issues that have expired; 2. Strategies for the effectiveness of religious knowledge in individual and social life, 3. Methods of normalization of beliefs. The first meaning is not fundamentally different from theology in the conventional sense, and the relationship between the two is general and absolute, but applied theology in the second and third meanings has a distinct identity from common theology, and consists of a set of rules that The principles of those rules are derived from various sciences such as ethics, education, sociology and psychology. The present article, in addition to explaining the three meanings and their necessity and position, deals with the relationship between each of them with common theology.
