Secular Psychosis

A rare, extreme break from reality precipitated by the total collapse of a religious worldview without an alternative structure to contain existential anxiety. It can manifest as a nihilistic delusion that nothing is real, a solipsistic conviction that the individual is the only conscious being in a dead universe, or a desperate, personal mythology constructed from scientific or political concepts elevated to delirious, salvific proportions (e.g., believing one must literally "merge with the Singularity" to escape the horror of mortality). It is the mind's catastrophic failure to cope with the sheer scale and indifference of a genuinely godless cosmos.

Example: After a lifelong crisis of faith, a person becomes convinced that consciousness is a curse and that the material universe is a "cancer of nothingness." They believe they have a mission to "un-think" reality into oblivion, and stop speaking because they think language perpetuates the illusion. This is secular psychosis: the metaphysical terror of a purely physical, purposeless universe, unmet by any cultural or psychological container, causing a complete psychotic decompensation where the mind fabricates a terrifying, personal cosmology to explain the abyss it perceives.

Secularothinking

The dogmatic groupthink that can emerge within militant secularist or anti-religious communities, where any expression of religious belief, spirituality, or tradition is automatically dismissed as primitive, irrational, or dangerous. This mindset enforces a rigid orthodoxy of materialism and scientific reductionism, treating all religion as a monolithic evil. It prevents nuanced understanding of religion's cultural, psychological, and social roles, and often mirrors the absolutism it condemns, creating an echo chamber of intellectual superiority that is hostile to phenomenological or anthropological perspectives.

Example: In an online atheist forum, a member shares research on the positive role of religious rituals in community cohesion during crises. The response is pure Secularothinking: immediate accusations of "apologetics," a barrage of links to crimes committed in religion's name, and mocking of the user's intelligence. The group's identity is so tied to opposition that it cannot engage with any data that complicates its worldview.

Secularology

The study of secular, atheist, and skeptic organizations—both in real life and online—as social constructions that reproduce the same structures as religious or political institutions. Secularology examines how secular communities develop creeds, rituals, hierarchies, and boundary-policing mechanisms, despite often claiming to be purely rational. It asks: how do skeptic organizations handle internal dissent? What functions do atheist conferences serve? How does online secular discourse mimic evangelical fervor? Secularology reveals that 'secular' does not mean 'free of social construction'; secular groups build communities, enforce norms, and exercise power just like any other human institution.

Example: “His secularology research found that online atheist forums had excommunication rituals, sacred texts (Dawkins, Hitchens), and heresy trials—they were a religion in all but name.”

Secularology

The study of secular institutions—especially atheist, skeptic, and secular humanist organizations in real life and online—using Kremlinological methods to map hidden leadership, internal factions, purity spirals, and excommunication rituals. Secularologists analyze conference speaker lineups, donation patterns, social media call‑outs within the community, and the rise of “skeptic” influencers. Like Sovietologists studying party purges, secularologists study how secular communities enforce orthodoxy (rejection of anything “woo”), how they expel heretics (those who question materialism or criticize movement leaders), and how they maintain the appearance of unity despite deep schisms. The field reveals that secularism is not immune to the social dynamics of religion.

Example: "Secularology research traced how a prominent skeptic organization split into two warring factions after a dispute over sexual harassment policies—the excommunications were performed via public threads, and the schism was permanent."

Rimjob Secular

Rimjob Secular a description, of a speaker or writer who blindly supports political Islamists inspite of knowing the threat it possesses. They deleberately fake ignorance for selfish gains.

The word got popularity following large scale gold smuggling in India via rectum were intercepted. The summglers were people believed to be recruited by political Islamists to fund themselves.

Journalists and politicians mostly do rimjob secular activism for money, awards or other material benefits.

All Rimjob seculars are not motivated by money. Some do it for attention , as political islamists have good collectives and ecosystems to project anyone who supports them

The news anchor said, we won't report details of islamic terrorism because it will favour right wingers, typical rimjob secularism

I don't understand why he texts like an idiot supporting Islamist's victim card. Is he a rimjob secular?

Radical Grace (Secular)

A conscious choice to extend dignity, acceptance, and compassion even when it's not earned, expected, or reciprocated. It's a commitment to see the humanity in someone, or in yourself, when fear or judgment would be easier.

Most people would’ve snapped. He took a breath and offered kindness instead. That’s what radical grace (secular) looks like.
