Morphology
nontheological = theological (transparent) = non + theology + ical
Formed by productive prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' applied to 'theological', so the negated adjectival meaning is directly recoverable.
Etymology
The word nontheological combines non- 'not' with theo- 'god' and -logy 'study', the same -logy you see in biology. So, nontheological means 'not about the study of god' and is used for things not related to religious belief.
