ambipathy

ambipathy n (Latin, Greek ambi- (or amphi), both, on both sides + Greek pathos, feeling) - a mixture of sympathy and antipathy, of attraction and repulsion; a condition of being torn apart by conflicting feelings and aspirations.
"... At once I hate and love as well," - this line by Catullus, Roman poet of the first century BC, is one of the first literary expressions of ambipathy.

Dmitry Karamazov in Dostoevsky says that "a man is too broad" and is equally attracted by the two abysses--the upper and the lower ones, the ideal of Madonna and the ideal of Sodom. In this sense, Dmitry and perhaps Dostoevsky himself are the brightest manifestations of this common trait of ambipathy.

Antiphysicalism

Antiphysicalism is a metaphysical philosophy that rejects physicalism and supports there are more things besides matter and physics, antiphysicalism has extraphysicalism as its main philosophical current, where everything is extraphysical and even physics are part of extraphysics and vice-versa. Antiphysicalism usually advocates extraphysical mechanics and extraphysical theory as means to justify antiphysicalism and it supports that humanity should think beyond matter and beyond physics, such as understanding that there are a big chance to exist so many more things beyond matter and physics, such as extraphysics and even multiverses and multidimensions.
"Antiphysicalism is an interesting philosophy and way of thinking, it's just like antipositivism and antimaterialism, but about physicalism, and that's nice that there are more people who think beyond physicalism and can understand that there's big probality to exist things beyond matter and physics, such as extraphysicalism actually says, but we are still so limited in almost all ways to understand and see that."
