Wonderfully concise article on The Skepbitch about what skepticism is and isn’t:

Skepticism isn’t an organization, a religion or a cult. You don’t have to attend a sermon, buy a book, or read this blog.

You don’t have to label yourself an agnostic, an atheist, a freethinker, a humanist, a bright, a rationalist, a libertarian, or even a skeptic.

If you crave some buzzwords and sound bytes, then skepticism is about critical thinking, clear thinking, logic, rationale, science, and keeping an open mind.

If these still sound too stuffy, then skepticism is about about [sic] knowledge, understanding, honesty, truth and reality.
