I was once introduced as, 'Andrew, my flatmate, the one who isn't a
theologian', to which the introduced person replied, 'so he's an
un-theologian.'  I kept the tag, especially since a the third person I
flat with is Catholic and signs himself as Magister Sacra Theologia,
Master of Theology, after his name.  I am interested in theology but I
have no credentials in that direction and am content to remain an
untheologian for now.

I like Paul's breakdown of my title though.  Before I discovered this
list I called our shared hobby Created Languages rather than Constructed
Languages.
