The perfect word for the week condisering Easter is upon us:
Hagiology (n)
"Hint: Hagiology has more in common with with myths and magic than superannuated sylphs or testy troglodytes. To be more specific, it is literature that narrates the lives and legends of saints and venerated holy people or, ephemeral events of a supernatural nature."--squidoo.com-- weird words
Although, some may consider the Christian belief that Christ was resurrected on the third day after his crucifiction to be similar to the supernatural and impossible, me and my family know it truly happened. It is a part of our faith and testimony and not part of a hagiology.
Hagiology- Noun
1. literature narrating the lives (and legends) of the saints
