11. No it is antidisestablishmentarianism...not istic! Well, I guess if you
are a part of the ism your would be an istic? I just never heard it put that way... The other Transubstantiation. Being a Catholic I learned that and Mea Culpa amoung other life long learnings!

antidisestablishmentarianism.
Main Entry: antidisestablishmentarianism
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: originally, opposition to the disestablishment of the Church of England, now opposition to the belief that there should no longer be an official church in a country
Example: When people are asked for the longest word they know, they often say antidisestablishmentarianism

12. I took it upon myself to create a new word:
