About This Quote
To call one’s self an atheist is to disregard or disregard the belief in a god. The phrase “like you silly bums” implies that the individual is derisive of the belief in god. “Mr. NOT” is a reference to the biblical figure, Nehemiah.
Nehemiah was a Jew who led a group of people back to Jerusalem after it had been destroyed and rebuilt more than 700 years prior. After successfully getting them there, he and his followers built a wall around the city and then went about rebuilding their lives and their nation. To call someone “a silly bum” implies that they are foolish and naive, as if they do not know better than to believe in such superstitions as religion.
