Paradoxiautohuiotheocide
(noun)
The paradoxical act in Christian theology wherein God, through the crucifixion of Jesus, simultaneously commits filicide and self‑sacrifice — killing his own divine son who is consubstantial with himself. Used humorously or pedantically to describe any situation where someone sabotages themselves by sacrificing a part of their identity that is also them.
Etymology: From Greek paradoxon (contrary to expectation), auto (self), huios (son), theos (god), and Latin ‑cide (to kill).
See also:
• Paradoxiautoteknotheocide — variant using teknon (child) instead of huios (son).
• Autogenotheocide — emphasizes “offspring” but risks confusion with genocide.
• Autoparadoxidgenotheocide — maximalist pedantic form: “self‑paradox‑offspring‑god‑killing.”
• Theocide / Deicide — existing terms meaning “killing a god,” but lacking the paradoxical self‑referential nuance.

"The often cited paradoxiautohuiotheocide found in the New Testament tends to lead extensive debates over the nature of God and Jesus Christ. Paradoxiautohuiotheocide is a contrived convolution derived of the apparent paradox of Jesus Christ being both the son of God and God incarnate. No other express examples of this nature appear in theological mythology, and appears to be unique to the Christian faith. While it is true other mythologies certainly have gods who die, gods who sacrifice themselves, or gods who kill their offspring, no other has constructed it such that the demigod offspring embodies the parental deity leading to the dualistic suicide/filicide/patricide construction as found in the New Testament. It is unique as it fuses three different, yet common, mythological tropes; deity-mortal offspring, incarnation of the deity as a mortal, and self-sacrifice Paradoxiautohuiotheocide perfectly describes this narrative fusion within the Biblical narrative."
