What do you think a skeptic is?
It seems like skepticism in the philosophical sense is not the same sort that we tend to think of as skepticism (religious/scientific skepticism). In the former case, it's more like the theists who are skeptics (though in a paradoxical fashion, since they then appeal to faith to account for the so-called unreliability of reason) whereas we atheists tend to be skeptics in the latter sense of the term.
See this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_skepticism
Basically, philosophical skepticism is a rejection of the possibility of knowledge of some or all subject matters.
