    Antidisestablishmentarianism-Basically, it means that you are opposed to the separation of church and state. In England it refered to those that opposed the separation of the Chuch of England from the government.
    And I'm curious, that medical term which I'm not even going to try to spell, even though I can see it, is that in a good standard dictionary or something that requires a medical dictionary because there is a difference, just wondering?
