Bottomlessness

/ˈbɒtəmləsnəs/ noun

Definition

The quality or state of being without a bottom or limit; endless or infinite depth.

Etymology

From 'bottomless' plus the noun-forming suffix '-ness', creating an abstract noun that describes the property of having no bottom or boundaries.

Kelly Says

The Bottomless Pit appears repeatedly in literature and theology—from Dante's Inferno to the Book of Revelation—as a symbol of infinite punishment and the human fear of endless falling into nothingness.
