Yeah. The trouble with as the dictionary has it "the practice or principle of basing opinions and actions on reason and knowledge" is what are you basing it on? Why are we here? What's the purpose of life. The answer to those is basically don't know, and they you build your reasoning on top of that.

However common sense "be nice to people" etc kind of works.
