It is possible for a Christian to be a humanist and a moralist if he/she creates very specific interpretations of the bible that are very compatible with human rights and morality - You've certainly heard about pro-gay marriage, pro-choice, pro-euthanasia Christians, there are some - My girlfriend calls herself a Christian and she is pro-gay marriage and pro-choice (in spite of thinking abortion is morally incorrect - But she doesn't impose her morality) and pro-scientific knowledge.
Let's say I am a Christian who is crazy about human rights and humanist political/philosophical orientations - I could interpret certain passages of the bible to fit my love for human rights, it is possible. Now if it makes sense, that's a whole different question - If there's a passage saying You shall kill people X and Y I don't think it makes sense to make up different interpretations.

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
