Why this word is great
THEOMACHY — [Noun] A battle against or among gods, or a stance of active opposition to divine will. From Ancient Greek θεομαχία (theomakhía), from θεός (theós, "god") + μάχη (mákhē, "battle, fight"). Unlike "titanomachy," which chronicles one specific, generational war in myth, or "blasphemy," which is an irreverent utterance from a kneeling position, theomachy is the posture of standing combat. It is the clang of divine spears on Olympus, the mortal raising a sword to a wrathful sky, and the quiet, heretical resolve to fight a storm rather than kneel—the furious, doomed dignity of a finite will meeting the infinite.
