Antidisestabishmentarianism is Being opposed to the belief that there should no longer be an official church a the country.

Their proponents are Antidisestablishmenatarians. Antidisestabishmentarianism is not in fact the longest word in English, but one of the longest words, at 28 Letters

There is also a place in Wales(Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch), But of course that's a place name. A Hill in New Zealand (Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu) and more.
And also a disease of the lungs, pneumo­noultra­microscopic­silico­volcano­coniosis
And flocci­nauci­nihili­pili­fication(29 letters), which is the longest word as quoted in the Guinness book of world records up to 92', this is defined as the act of estimating (something) as worthless.

I personally prefer Antidisestablishmentarianism because its actually easy to spell phonetically:D

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

The word Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is defined as "a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust, mostly found in volcanos". It was originally coined simply to serve as the longest English word, but has been used in several sources as an approximation of its originally intended definition. The name generally used to describe this condition is pneumoconiosis, which is much shorter.
