rationalist
의미: A person who regards reason and logical analysis as the primary source of knowledge, or who bases opinions and actions on reason rather than emotion, tradition, or religious belief.
Rationalist has both a narrow philosophical sense (the tradition of Descartes, Spinoza, and Leibniz, who held that knowledge can be derived from reason alone) and a broader everyday sense describing someone who demands logical justification for beliefs. In British public discourse, it is often associated with secularism and scepticism towards religion. The Rationalist Press Association, founded in 1899, remains active as Humanists UK.
