(once again, from my wiki, though this version is shorter…)
A “Creed of Death” (CoD) is my term for any belief (including religion), philosophy or political system which leads to death instead of life.
Note that I don’t mean “death” merely in the physical sense; in other words, I am not referring to some kind of suicidal cult, or a cabal of necromancers. 
I mean a “death in life”, a living death.
Note: this article is adapted from one I wrote some time ago in my wiki.
Sadness worshipping is what I call a particular phenomenon that I despise, and that is sadly too common.
This phenomenon is the idea ingrained in society that sadness and suffering, especially if it is one’s own, is something positive, something to be proud of, something to defend if necessary.
Sadness is, indeed, a part of life. So is having a cold. But one does not feel proud of his cold, does not get used to it so much that the idea of being cured of it becomes frightening.
