Sentientism is "evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings".
It's a naturalistic worldview committed to using evidence and reason when working out what to believe. It's also sentiocentric - granting moral consideration to all sentient beings.…

Interesting to see Sentientism mentioned as a "type of atheist"! For me, atheism is just one of very many implications of the Sentientism worldview's "evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings".

Apologies if you've already seen this - but I really enjoyed this conversation with Jordi Casamitjana as the pilot episode of Vegan FTA's "Vegan Reflections" series. Jordi was my guest back on Sentientism episode 104 so it was fun to have him turn the tables: https://youtu.be/LHJQ8L3YIOQ As ever - I'm only one Sentientist so these are personal views not some canonical representation of Sentientism! All Sentientists will disagree with me on something :)
