==Criticism==

The movement has been criticised by some (both religious and non-religious) who have objected to the adoption of the title "bright" because they believe it suggests that the individuals with a naturalistic [[worldview]] are more intelligent ("brighter") than non-naturalists, such as [[philosophical skepticism|philosophical skeptics]] or [[idealism|idealists]], believers in the [[paranormal]], [[philosophical theism|philosophical theists]] or the [[religiosity and intelligence|religious]].<ref name="not so bright">{{cite news| last = D'Souza| first = Dinesh| title = Not So 'Bright'| work = The Wall Street Journal| publisher = Dow Jones & Co.| date = 12 October 2003| url = http://www.opinionjournal.com/extra/?id=110004153| accessdate = 2007-11-30}}</ref> For example, the [[Committee for Skeptical Inquiry]] published an article by [[Chris Mooney (journalist)|Chris Mooney]] titled "Not Too 'Bright'" in which he stated that, although he agreed with the movement, Richard Dawkins' and Daniel Dennett's "campaign to rename religious unbelievers 'brights' could use some rethinking" because of the possibility that the term would be misinterpreted.<ref>{{cite web|author=Chris Mooney |url=http://www.csicop.org/specialarticles/show/not_too_bright/ |title=Brights: Not Too "Bright" (Doubt and About) |publisher=Csicop.org |date= |accessdate=2011-04-05}}</ref> The journalist and noted atheist [[Christopher Hitchens]] likewise found it a "cringe-making proposal that atheists should conceitedly nominate themselves to be called 'brights.'"<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.slate.com/id/2165033/entry/2165035/ |title=Exclusive excerpts from Christopher Hitchens' God Is Not Great. – By Christopher Hitchens – Slate Magazine |publisher=Slate.com |date= |accessdate=2010-01-04}}</ref> Dennett posed the idea that ''super'' may serve well as a positive title for those who believe in the supernatural.

Another common criticism {{Citation needed|date=March 2010}} of the Bright movement is that the proposed terminology is superfluous, being virtually synonymous with already accepted descriptive terms such as [[secular humanism|secular humanist]], [[metaphysical naturalism|naturalist]], and [[rationalist]].
