ubiquity

CIDE DICTIONARY

ubiquityn. [L. ubique everywhere, fr. ubi where, perhaps for cubi, quobi (cf. alicubi anywhere), and if so akin to E. who: cf. F. ubiquité.].
  •  Existence everywhere, or in all places, at the same time; omnipresence; as, the ubiquity of God is not disputed by those who admit his existence.  [1913 Webster]
    "The arms of Rome . . . were impeded by . . . the wide spaces to be traversed and the ubiquity of the enemy."  [1913 Webster]
  •  The doctrine, as formulated by Luther, that Christ's glorified body is omnipresent.  [1913 Webster]

DEVIL DICTIONARY

ubiquity

n. The gift or power of being in all places at one time, but not in all places at all times, which is omnipresence, an attribute of God and the luminiferous ether only. This important distinction between ubiquity and omnipresence was not clear to the mediaeval Church and there was much bloodshed about it. Certain Lutherans, who affirmed the presence everywhere of Christ's body were known as Ubiquitarians. For this error they were doubtless damned, for Christ's body is present only in the eucharist, though that sacrament may be performed in more than one place simultaneously. In recent times ubiquity has not always been understood -- not even by Sir Boyle Roche, for example, who held that a man cannot be in two places at once unless he is a bird.
