Best Answer

It is a slang way to refer to someone who feels they are more righteous than other people. Their "righteousness" is said to be about themselves and not about God. So they are "self righteous."

It is similar to "arrogant" but with a religious connotation. Sometimes people will also say "holier than thou."
