Religion: the belief in death, Deathism.

Optional: idiot form of Necroticism; people who can't spell properly.

necrotism

1. The practice of earning a specific position or office on the coattails, reputation, or based on the fondess for a dead relative.
2. Being favored in some way due to a familial relationship to a beloved person who is now deceased.
3. The practice of "keeping" a deceased relative "alive" officially for financial or professional gain and benefit.
1. After Rep. Sonny Bono died, it was no surprise he was followed in office by his wife Mary Bono. Political necrotism is a tried and true way for the people to feel like they've kept a bit of the person they've lost in office.

2. Jack's Dad is such a legend around here, they jumped at the chance to send him up the ladder. Never mind that the old coot is dead, Jack will be CEO one day thanks to the blatant necrotism.

3. Grandma died years ago, but through the magic of a little necrotism, my brother and I benefit from her monthly social security check to this day.

Negrotism

Negrotism is a type of "blackness" or invisible "black matter" that radiates off of someone with a high level of Negrosity. This is often seen when someone smokes weed or a combination of other drugs (such as a Jeffrey). Negrotism may be radiated from a subject whether they are of black decent or not, as long as the Negrosity levels are high enough. Negrotism can sometime be absorbed from an outside source such as another subject radiating Negrotism. Negrotism can be more easily absorbed if the subject consumes more cornbread, grape drink, fried chicken, corn, and even mashed potatoes to an extent.
Nate smoked so much of that really ballin' weed that he started to radiate Negrotism.
