damnability
State of warranting condemnation
Damnability is the quality of deserving condemnation or, in religious contexts, eternal punishment.
The word appears in theological discussions about whether certain sins merit damnation: The damnability of the act was never in question.
Outside religious use, it describes anything worthy of strong censure or blame.
