Why this word is great
AISCHROLATREIA — [Noun] The worship of filth or obscenity. From Ancient Greek αἰσχρός (aiskhrós, "disgraceful") + λατρεία (latreía, "worship"), it is the dark liturgy of the profane. Unlike "coprophemia" (which fixates on excrement alone) or "scatology" (which studies it clinically), aischrolatreia is a devotional surrender to degradation. It is the sewer-dweller kissing the slime-coated walls of his sanctum, the cultist anointing himself with rancid oils, the poet who finds divinity in the grime beneath his fingernails—a perverse but undeniable testament to the human capacity to sanctify even what repulses. To kneel before filth is to confess that even the lowest things demand their apostles.
