- Delete, neologism. Chronolatry, a word supposedly coined . These first 5 words of the article show exactly why it shouldn't be in Wikipedia. It's a word and it's supposedly coined. We need to be able to verify it. Mgm|(talk) 08:32, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: I took out the phrase "supposedly coined by Jacques Maritain" because of the following quote; "The epistemological chronolâtry is an obsessionnal fixation on the passing of time. Not to be 'trendy' is the She'ol (hell)."—Jacques Maritain. Le Paysan de la Garonne. Desclée de Brouwer, Paris, 1966. p.26. Also, Le Paysan de la Garonne gets 257 hits at Google, which is not bad for an out-of-print French philosophy book; The English translation, The Peasant of the Garonne: An Old Layman Questions Himself About the Present Time, gets 392 hits. -DialUp 15:09, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I think that DialUp's links demonstrate the notability of the book, but not the term. However it seems to me that it is an important concept, Merge with Jacques Maritain Dsmdgold 01:46, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)
