skeptibility

(1) Level of incredulity appropriate to evaluating a claim despite its verisimilitude.

(2) An amalgamation of susceptibility and skepticism.

For example:

(1) On Wikipedia, increased activity in the discussions and frequent revisions should raise skeptibility.

(2) Dude, ever notice how bananas fit your hand perfectly? That means they were created for you!

Bro, you have no skeptibility, google "Origin of species - Science Fail"

Skeptically Absurd

When one is only skeptical of information that contradicts a preformed opinion and openly accepts any and all aligned information, regardless of legitimacy or source, and openly rejects contradictory information that cannot be proven to be true when judged against an ever-changing ad-hoc burden of proof

Joe is so skeptically absurd into the deep state that he anything anyone brings to the table he rejects. He’s is the head of skeptically absurdism.

Skeptically Correct

The normative stance in skeptic communities where demanding extraordinary evidence, doubting everything outside a narrow scientific consensus, and aggressively debunking “pseudoscience” become mandatory performances of virtue. Being “skeptically correct” means reflexively rejecting claims about spirituality, alternative medicine, or anomalous experiences, and dismissing anyone who entertains them as gullible or irrational. It mimics political correctness by establishing a rigid orthodoxy—here, the orthodoxy of methodological naturalism and the authority of institutional science—and punishing deviation with ridicule and exclusion.

Example: “When she mentioned her meditation practice, he immediately declared it ‘unscientific’ and questioned her judgment. He wasn’t being skeptical; he was being skeptically correct, enforcing the community’s approved beliefs.”
