A genuine optimist sees the glass as half-full
A genuine realist sees the glass as half-full or half-empty; same thing really
A true pessimist knows the glass is empty because one of those two bastards will drink it first

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Re: Optimist / Pessimist / Realist
An optimistic realist who is also a pessimistic pedant is happy to see a glass with water in it but believes the water is contaminated and is sure that someone either chose the wrong size glass or underestimated the amount of water required for a glass of its size.
