ORIGINS AND ETYMOLOGY
Astro-English: from Astronese, the pre-Astronist word anthropopathy is used to denote the attribution of human emotions to a god or to the nature of divinity; the attachment of both the prefix anti- and the suffix -ism to this term denotes opposition to any instance of such an attribution and the formalisation of such an opposition into a belief.
