Pathology

Pathology: noun. The science of finding paths. There are various types of pathology, though the most important one by far is cartographic pathology, the prime representative of which are applications such as Google Maps. However, pathology is often conceived of in a more abstract manner, as a science of finding the right path in life. Thus understood, almost all philosophies and religions make pathological claims, i.e. philosophies and religions are pathological.
