Metanarrative or grand narrative or mater narrative is a term developed by Jean-François Lyotard to mean a theory that tries to give a totalizing, comprehensive account to various historical events, experiences, and social, cultural phenomena based upon the appeal to universal truth or universal values.[1]

metaculture is a new kind of metanarrative, different from religions and ideologies of the past, because it has science and self-correction as its only dogma. This means that when future evidence reveals many parts of this wiki to be incomplete or incorrect, they can simply be edited rather than discredited.
