nounbelowness (uncountable)
- uncountablehuman sciencesThe quality of being below.
Because this evangile does in fact give us a continuum of gods below and above joined by a vibrating cord, it supports my point that metaphors operate upon continua — in this case belowness and aboveness — moving people and things aptly about on the continua.
