ɛnˈskəʊpm(ə)nt
noun Astrosoteriology
a person’s endowment with scope, the time of the occurrence of which remains in debate among Astronists yet Institutional orthodoxy maintains the position that enscopement occurs for all at conception as a result of the aftereffects of the scope of man and that one’s degree and dynamics of scope develop thereafter.
