ERICance

Sinless religious (or otherwise) arrogance; It's Pride and Joy; Righteous Profitable Honest Boast in Self

The term is usually used by people named "Eric" or to people named "Eric", but it can be used at anytime to anyone.
Luke 18:9-14 talks about the Pharisee and the Tax Collector

The Tax Collector was justified because of humility
The Pharisee, who lived a great life, was boasting in prayer. He was condemned in the parable for exalting himself over the Tax Collector

Pride is worse than most other sins, even in small quantities

Jesus concluded that "He who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted."

To distinguish this type of Pride and Arrogance with the sinless "Pride and Joy" of boasting without offending Jesus, this word was created. It sounds similar to "Arrogance" and my real name is "Eric". When you combine the terms, we have a new word: ERICance

In short, If it is likely that the arrogance observed in a situation is sinful in the eyes of the God of the Bible and Jesus, that is called "Pride and Arrogance"; If the Pride is playful and innocent and likely not offensive to God, you have observed ERICance
Eric: I bowled an 846 series at the Granada Bowl, so that means i'm the best!!!!!
Hater: That is arrogance, and you will be damned now, because Proverbs 6:16 hates on the PROUD LOOK. That is ARROGANCE.
Eric: ............................................................ ERICance ?

Eric: I have 312 Bible verses memorized! That is %1 of the whole Bible!
Hater: That is ARROGANCE
Eric: It's ERICance
