Actually, this is the closest I've seen to a protologism in the wild (as opposed to entries people have felt moved to add to the protologisms list themselves). All the uses I could track down cite Charry's original coinage and gloss the word, so it would appear clear that the term is not in common use, even in theological circles. Further, Charry clearly coined it from its intended definition in hopes of future use.

Note, however, that it's a perfectly fine entry under the "one appearance in a published work" standard. -dmh 04:47, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
