Religion/ *re·li·gion, *noun
"A cause, principle, or activity pursued with zeal or conscientious
devotion."

-Invisible man who makes things
-Things happening by themselves over an un-monitorable period of time in
contradiction to accepted laws of physics

Either one fits the bill I suppose.  And from the perspective of the
'believer' of any opposing view, the other will appear to be ignorant or
simplifying things to ease ridicule.

But yah, OT... and once again I'm sucked into it like a black hole...
