The Bright Stuff

What/Who is a bright?

"The time has come for us brights to come out of the closet. What is a bright? A bright is a person with a naturalist as opposed to a supernaturalist world view. We brights don't believe in ghosts or elves or the Easter Bunny — or God. We disagree about many things, and hold a variety of views about morality, politics and the meaning of life, but we share a disbelief in black magic — and life after death." says philosopher/cognitive scientist and an enthusiastic bright, Daniel C. Dennett.
