Gay, Catholic and Doing Fine

[athrock]

And you are an example of an evolutionary superior "bright"? Of one who is above all others and can look down upon those you have judged because of your compassion for the lowliness of their backward state of existence?

Nah.

You know that the atheists who call themselves 'Brights' are a tiny minority of atheists, right? It never really caught on. Because it sounds like we're saying we're smarter than other people. Even people who refer to themselves by that term don't claim to be 'evolutionarily superior'. Are we Bond villains in your head?

And if you consider yourself a Bright, the term they use for people who aren't Brights is 'Supers'. A contraction of supernaturalists. It must mean they think believers are dumb, huh?

Yes, I realize that the term was coined and, thankfully, discarded. Apparently, it wasn't a very bright idea. 

That's why I enjoy using it to poke fun at atheists.
