Someone who obsessed with theology or church doctrine to the point of it taking over their life. They love to split hairs over every minute detail or obscure interpretation of a given religious worldview. They can be a member of any religious sect (or even sometimes non-religious academics), but in the West they are usually some variation of Christian. It is important to note that the majority of Christians, and religious people in general, are not theologycels.
Me: "Divorce is wrong unless a spouse committed infidelity or abuse"
Theologycel: "Well actually, the Catholic Church defined marriage as a sacrament in 1439, and it cannot be broken for any reason. This is all well known in the Canon and it goes back to this verse in Ecclesiastes that stipulates as such. Besides, there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church so you'll burn in hell if you disagree."
Me: "Shut up theologycel. I will not listen to you or your globohomo Pope lecture me on the morality of divorce."
