The opposite of humility. from http://www.gocomics.com/nonsequitur/2014/10/02/ Jan. 8, 2015 See http://catholiccitizenamerica.blogspot.com/2015/01/fossils-in-2014-weird-mouth-feathers.html#albertus for 'current' use. (Science and technology, studying the universe and applying that knowledge, is part of being human. We can misuse these tools, but whether we help or hurt each other is our decision. Blaming the tools doesn't make sense.  Neither, I think, is assuming that God must conform to our assumptions about the universe. That would be pretty much the opposite of humility.)
