Charles Buck Theological Dictionary [2]
One who treats any person or thing with contempt. "He deems, " says Mr. Scott, "his own understanding equal to the discovery, investigation, and even comprehension, of every subject: he therefore rejects as false whatever he cannot account for, what he finds contrary to his preconceived sentiments, and what is out of the reach of his reason; and, indeed, all that tends to condemn his conduct, or expose his folly."
Webster's Dictionary [3]
(n.) One who scorns; a despiser; a contemner; specifically, a scoffer at religion.
