It must be very interesting to be able to study religion.! Have you thought of being a professor? Usually, with that major you work in the educated field. Perhaps there is a think tank or you can work in organizations that deal with religion. There a lot of possibilities.
According to this website:
Religion majors have successfully gone on to professional training in:
Business (particularly international business)
Counseling and Social Work
Education
Journalism
Law
Medicine
Others have moved directly into the job market, taking up positions in:
Event planning, hospitality, or the service industry
The government, foreign service, or the Peace Corps
Marketing and management
Museums and the arts
Non-profit or non-governmental organizations
Publishing
In other words, it's up to you to decide which career is best for you. Good luck with everything. There is more information from the website.

So you mean that you have been taught everything that man knows about God. (Religion is the total realm of man.) How men do love themselves!) Throw everything you have been taught (knowlege of good and bad) out the window. Start interpreting from a womans point of view. What! Unheard of! This has never been thought of. Is there anything new under the sun? A lone voice crying in the wilderness of deciet perhaps. Just realize that, Gentile, Israel, Church, Bride, Wife, and Mother, are all literally women. Men put themselves in place of all these words, and interchange them at will to suit their purposes. They are all standing where they ought not! If you do this, the bible will become crystal clear to you, you will understand the true, everlasting gospel, and have a real message of great joy to teach.

You might consider studying the Neo-Pagan religious movements. They're vital, they're growing, and their history (both real and pseudo) is fascinating, in my opinion.
A couple of good books to start with are "Drawing Down the Moon" by Margot Adler (which deals with several modern denominations) and "The Triumph of the Moon" by Ronald Hutton (which deals with the history of modern Pagan witchcraft).

You have a basic understanding of religious customs. It might help you deal with the issues in a multicultural work environment.

You can sell shoes, be a minister or a host of other non productive things with your life. I highly recommend you change your major and get on with your life.

Teach
Maybe work in intelligence or something with public relations as a religion expert.
Otherwise, not much.

maximum of it particularly is cultural, not religious. E.g., interior the early days of Christianity, there have been woman church leaders - deacons, priests, or maybe bishops. in actuality, culturally, men held sway exterior the homestead, yet, females interior it. As early Christians met in human beings's residences - the "homestead" churches, they might have been led by females. yet, Jewish way of existence replace into noticeably male ruled, and, the Romans have been worse. So, as Christianity unfold in the process the Roman worldwide, females's roles declined till they have been of no account. This took approximately 800 years, and in case you look on the writings of Church fathers, you will discover a gradual progression of the lessening of girls. comparable faith, yet, diverse way of existence. This grew to become even worse with the upward push of English. English lacks a independent own pronoun. we won't be able to say "It" for God in English, in spite of the reality that that works in simple terms super in different languages. We would desire to declare, "Him," or "Her," and "Him" gained the toss. In English, we frequently talk with animate issues as male, and inanimate ones (e.g., ships, or equipment) as woman. for sure, a deliver isn't woman! yet, we constantly use "she," comparable as we almost constantly use "He" for God, even nevertheless God has no gender. lower back, it particularly is a cultural ingredient, in accordance with our language, and not area of the faith itself. in actuality, it particularly is the different of what the faith teaches.
