Title: Study of the afterlife
Post by Inventech5 on Feb 19^th, 2010 at 11:55pm

Is there a scientific term it? Something ending in -logy? If not what we should make one.

Para-Psychology is the one I know of but it covers a lot of ground. Almost everything it includes is based on the belief in a greater superset beyond our own physical subset here in C1 like psychic phenomena in addition to an afterlife, but of course they are all in the same family, I suppose. Some would argue though.

Metaphysicology? Supernaturology? Why not?

Perhaps because Metaphysics isn't part of the current belief system of traditional science it has not been graced with an "ology" as yet. :)

There you go again, providing plausible, reasonable answers just when I am trying to make something up!
