Gary sez: "This guy has an amazing collection of word lists: included are word lists for various topics: manias & obsessions, philosophical 'isms'--you name it. Also feathers The International House of Logorrhea, a 14000-word dictionary of obscure and rare words. The only people who won't like this site are morosophs and misosophs!"
cynartomachy -- bear-baiting using dogs

gigantomachy -- war of giants against the gods

pneumatomachy -- denial of the divinity of the Holy Ghost
