Sentientism is: Evidence, reason and moral consideration for all sentient beings
Download Telegram
Join us in London! #Sentientism meetup Sun 7th Dec.
Chatting about how education could be more "evidence, reason, & compassion for all sentient beings."
In particular, in light of #religiouseducation becoming part of UK national curriculum. #TeamRE
All welcome! Sign up https://luma.com/uxs5ot2n?tk=kZfI9u
Thanks for organising, Michael!
Anthropocentrism is bad for human sentients.
Two things I’m confident are robustly positive in the face of epistemic and moral uncertainty:

1) Naturalistic “evidence & reason” understanding of reality

2) Sentiocentric “compassion for all sentient beings” moral scope.

"If you’re a liberal and you think the fundamental political task is to stop tyranny… then the animal question just seems to be obvious… It’s the most blatant example of the unaccountable exercise of power…"

Imagine someone adopts the #Sentientism worldview: “evidence, reason, and compassion for all sentient beings”.

What impacts will there be on them as an individual and on the wider world - over time?
Looking forward to our 3rd IRL #Sentientism Community Meetup tomorrow. We'll be chatting about our visions for #sentientisteducation. What education grounded in "evidence, reason, & compassion for all sentient beings" might look like. Come join us!

Sentientist Constitutions?
Constitutions are the foundation of our legal and political systems. Imagine they included non-human animals! Learn about this simple yet radical idea in episode 241 of the Sentientism podcast and YouTube with John Adenitire and Raffael Fasel.

Non-human sentient beings should be part of every moral conversation.

It’s not enough to address them as an afterthought on the rare occasion that someone asks the awkward question.

Unthinking, unchallenged anthropocentrism is even more dangerous than explicit anthropocentrism.

Good epistemology is a moral imperative.
