@PhilosophyExp As a method of inquiry, it's certainly compatible with humanism, but not necessarily continuous with it.
Contra Ron Lindsay, skeptical inquiry is just as likely to support nihilism as it is humanism or humanist ethics (whatever that might be).

@DJGrothe If it suggests nihilism, and I see no reason to rule that out, then it's incompatible with humanism. -
@PhilosophyExp@DJGrothe Isn't the reality that CFI stands for a sociological clustering set of about three positions? /1 -
@Metamagician Yeah, it's a position and a corporate strategy but skepticism doesn't demand humanism necessarily@PhilosophyExp -
@DJGrothe@PhilosophyExp It's a cluster that sits pretty well with me, as it happens. -
@Metamagician (Much like methodological naturalism doesn't demand atheism, tho certainly is compatible with it.)@PhilosophyExp
