I think of secular humanism as a methodology, rather than a system of beliefs and as such, it may be subscribed to by people of different religious faiths. All that it requires is
for people to make arguments based on science and reason for
the purpose of advancing human society. 

There certainly are theistic brands of Humanism. There is no
reason there cannot be Christian Humanists, or Jewish Humanists,
and so on. As long as they put the needs of humans, and our
fellow animals and the environment we all need to share, ahead of
the needs of their gods, they are more than welcome to be a part
of the greater Humanism.
