If you want to go into the clergy, study science
It may sound strange to young scientists ot today who are thoroughly steeped in the culture wars before they get a bachelor's degree, but historically - the last 40 years are outliers - both academia and the clergy have had a great deal of synergy. This is why historically conservatives have embraced science so strongly. If you want to get paid to study at The Vatican and your degree is in theology, you are going to have a much tougher time because, let's face it, in modern times philosophy is easy while the standards for science have not changed.
