anismism 

1) a school of thought which runs contrary to ismism.
2) a school of thought which runs contrary to the school of thought that schools of thought need labels.

Note: Implicit in anismism is a self-referential recursive paradox, however anismists don't think in absolutes and don't dwell on irresolvable paradox so it isn't really a problem.

Also: anismist - a subscriber to the idea of anismism
anistist - one who is against people who are for things.

Possible abbreviated forms: anism, anist
1) Spiritualism and Atheism are both equally irritating for much of the same reasons. Both are philosophical masturbation with no other practical purpose, thus I instead subscribe to anismism.

2) I find anyone who rigidly defines themselves by a philosophy which contains unprovable assumptions irritating. I am an anistist.

3) It would be an anist's wet dream dip Richard Dawkins and Bruce Chapman in a vat of personal lubricant and then lock them both in the same room.

The one who cares for everyone and always tries to bring a smile on everyone's face even if he is sad. He is very kind and mischievous but always takes care that he hurts no one by his actions or words except the ones who don't treat him well. He hears everything and knows everything but pretends as he doesn't and will do anything to keep your heart and is a true lover and will never leave you ever.
