It is a little embarrassing as a label, isn't it? I know that there's a significant correlation between lower intelligence & theism (& supernaturalism generally), and higher levels of intelligence and atheism, but it's not as if there are
no fuck-witted atheists about.
Also, it comes across as a bit arrogant to me. Not as arrogant as those who tell me what God wants (invariably very much like the sort of thing they want too, surprisingly), or that they know better than me, that they're kinder & more charitable than me, and how I could be just like them if I simpy asked Jesus into my heart (where's that vomiting smiley?). But arrogant, just the same.
So yes, it would be good to drop that 'Brights' bollocks.
