I would like to stand up and be counted!! I am a bright. I have been a Bright my entire adult life, under some label or another that seemed inadequate but necessary to the issue. And now I have found an adequate word. A bright. Yes, I am a very bright shadow! Lucifer.com found me before this pretty word did, but I think Lucifer would agree with it's prettiness with a purpose. A purpose that befits the Church of Virus, and the things that we have stood for as an "atheistic religion", and with our virtues of reason, empathy, and vision. I for one challenge the Church of the Virus to make this idea worth it's while. I imagine that we in the Church of the Virus are a population of almost complete brightness, for I think that we all knowingly stand in the shadows of our each various religious upbringings, if not the upbringings of others as well with whom we must interact.
With eight years of growth and running with this idea I have seen it already coming to fruition, as this online atheistic religion becomes a self-fulfilling prophcey of IRL proportions.
Welcome to the Church of the Virus.
I am a bright.
I am a bright.
I sing with all my might!
Love,
-Jake
