scientarian 

One who has a religious level of belief in "science", while having only the most superficial of understanding in the scientific concepts they argue. They frequently get involved in creation/evolution debates, but can only act smugly superior without adding anything of substance to the argument. They fail to understand that their dismissive, dogmatic responses to other belief systems are in fact hypocritical and detrimental to conversion.

Person 1: Creationist science = oxymoron. Either you believe in objective evidence or you don't.
Person 2: Is that the extent of your argument? What objective evidence are you referring to? What studies are you referencing? To which particular claim of Creationist Science are you denying? Your scientarian debate tactics will not help you here.

scientainment 

Science-based extrapolations for entertainment purposes (i.e. sci-fi), which free the most knowledgeable and intelligent fans of the burden of "suspended disbelief". The premise or concept would be plausible (or even foreseeable) given continued research and development in a particular field of science. The science is more important than the entertainment value alone - this results in sci-fi that satisfies on a new level for a cerebral audience.

nanotechnology is a prime example of science today that can be used as a mechanism for plausible fiction set in the near future.

Sci-Fi fan 1: "That movie had no chicks with big boobs, no explosions, no car chases, yet I still enjoyed it ... how is this possible?"
Sci-Fi fan 2: "Awesome scientainment value."
Sci-Fi fan 1: "Perhaps I should apply myself in my studies, as my interests in science have been piqued."
