Porosism
Porosism: noun. The absolutist belief that everything is (to some degree) porous. Porosists insist that a vacuum is the most porous thing possible, as it poses the smallest barriers to the free travelling of water. Air comes next, followed by liquids and eventually solids. According to Porosists, even a slab of iron is porous, as it lets through water if eroded enough. The counter-movement to this belief is Antiporosism, whose adherents believe that in truth, nothing is porous. The evidence they give for this claim, however, is hard to find and even harder to comprehend.
