The creation of new words is sometimes necessary and
justified. Also is true that a neologism or a portmanteau word truly exists
only when it’s used and included in different texts.
Some years ago, some UFO researchers arrived to the
conclusion that the Unidentified Flying Objects or UFOs, were in fact
spacecrafts from extraterrestrial civilizations visiting our planet.
This hypothetical conclusion evolved into the idea that
the powers-that-be were in contact with those extraterrestrial civilizations
keeping this contact secret. Conspiracy theorists created the idea of the
cover-up and demanded a disclosure.
Some brilliant minds tried to define our human relation
with the Extraterrestrials, also called aliens, with a neologism: EXOPOLITICS.
The problem is that until this moment there is absolutely
no evidence that confirms the existence of any extraterrestrial civilization
present in our Earth or in any other part of the universe.
If this is so, the whole thing is just contemporary
mythology and it seems perfectly justified to create another word for this:
EXOMYTHOLOGY.
If you believe that there is absolutely no evidence that
confirms the existence of any extraterrestrial civilization present in our
Earth or in any other part of the universe, and therefore is impossible to have
any political, biological or intellectual contact with the nonexistent extraterrestrial
civilizations, then you will find that the word EXOMYTHOLOGY is practical and
rational.
