Metaphysics is a study about the world, untainted by any assumptions, theological or scientific, unless it specifically states it. Legend says that the name was given by Aristotle because he ordered it before a book about physics, but Metaphysics could be understood as what comes before physics. I don’t go with that entertaining notion.
