Aye. Thanatos was the Greek personfication of mortal death, brother of Hypnos (sleep). Though may be considered one of the gods, he's somewhat exiled from Olympus since his job lies wholly in the domain of the mortals.

His mark of death would be to sever a lock of hair from the fated.

And I'd think anything with -logy would have derived its understandings from logos or logical thought. Which told me it was a science rather than a philosophy.
Political Correctness is the idea that you can foster tolerance in a diverse world through the intolerance of anything that strays from a clinical standard.
