A lych gate is a roofed gateway to a churchyard with a stand on which the people carrying the coffin could place it, while they rested before moving into the church for the service. Often a lych gate would have seats as, before the days of motorised hearses, coffins were often carried considerable distances. The lych gate gave those carrying the coffin the opportunity to rest and gather themselves before carrying the departed on the last leg of their journey with care and dignity.

Steins;Gate is an amazing sci-fi/drama anime about time travel. It follows the story of 18-year-old Okabe Rintarou, a self-proclaimed mad scientist who refers to himself as Hououin Kyouma. He, "super hacka" Hashida Itaru, and childhood friend Shiina Mayuri comprise the Future Gadgets Lab. Quite by accident, they discover that their Future Gadget #8, the Phone Microwave (Name Subject to Change), can send text messages to the past. They start sending more messages, radically changing past events (the butterfly effect) and eventually leading to distastrous consequences....
You should watch it. It will blow your mind.

Okabe Rintarou quotes:
"I'll say it once more. I am the mad scientist, Hououin Kyouma!"
"No one knows what the future holds. That's why its potential is infinite."
"This is the choice of Steins;Gate."
"El Psy Congroo."
And of course, the very best one...

A significant and important event, object, location, or time period . Stein's gate holds such a significance , simply because the word, onto itself means absolutely nothing, but whatever concept it is used to describe is important.
From the visual novel and anime/manga series Steins;Gate , where the term is used as a name for the ideal World Line.
