Pseudodoxy [1]
( Ψευδοδοξία , from Ψεῦδος , Falsehood, and Δόξα , opinion) designates a false or deceptive opinion, and hence is employed for Superstition and Error. A synonymous expression is Pseudodidascaly (from Διδασκαλία , instruction) , as he who holds erroneous opinions ( Ψευδόδοξος ) , if he communicates them, becomes a false teacher ( Ψευδοδιδάσκαλος ) . The opposite of these two expressions ought to be Orthodoxy and Orthodidascaly, but the latter two words are used in a somewhat different sense. (See Heterodox). The word Pseudoism is of recent formation, and means a general inclination to the false, which shows itself in thoughts, words, and doctrines, as well as in acts and in the social intercourse of life.
