A major facet of secular humanism.
I mean, it's 2 different fields. Science is the study of the physical world around us. That doesn't mean the person who studies the world can't also go to church on sundays and believe in God. "Secular humanism", based on your definition, sounds like it actually opposes belief in God.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
