A philosophical or religious belief system in which the individual self is regarded as a god, or a form of extreme self-worship.
From ego plus theism (Greek theos meaning 'god'). This term combines self-centered language with religious terminology to describe viewing oneself as divine rather than worshipping an external deity.
Egotheism is the ultimate endpoint of self-worship—it's not just loving yourself, you literally make yourself into a god, which is why it combines 'ego' with 'theism' (belief in god) so perfectly.
