Isms for Religions or Belief Systems

"Isms. Don't believe in them; can't believe without 'em!"


Adoptionism is a minority Christian belief that Jesus was born merely human and that he became divine later in his life.

Alternatively, you can consider this opinion:

I dont know why there’s gotta be an ism at the end of this world. The word is adoption. When people add ism on the end, it becomes unnecessary letters, and makes people look like an idiot. If they’re going to add ism to adoption, they might as well add Brangelina to the word since everyone associates them with it.

A quote from M-Turk:

I find that Ubiquitarianism is hilarious because these people who believe in it are either fanatics or don’t get the point. While Jesus is great, there are the 10 commandments and the golden rule. Everyone needs to wake up that Jesus will be back in his own time and your ism only fuels your own material expectations.

…considering Ubiquitarians claim to be open to all interpretations of Christianity and faith, I believe this M-Turker is a little off-point, too.
