@Sentientism @sentientism·

We need #Veganism to feel less weird and more “normal”.

But it’s hard to do that in a society that thinks it’s “normal” to have sentient beings harmed and killed for human pleasure. Basic ethics seems “weird” in that society.

We will get there, regardless. It’s happening.

The UK's National Beef Association has a proposal to cut emissions in the beef industry, but it...kind of sucks. My latest for @Sentient_Media , ft. @kernowbeaver @NicholasDCarter

Is this progress?:

I matter
⬇️
My group(s) of humans matter
⬇️
All humans matter
⬇️
All sentient (capable of suffering) beings matter
💚

How far have you got?

@JamesHeartfield @BenPhilliskirk @TrevorWAllman @jonnygill3 @OurWorldInData Thanks for reading it, James.

#Sentientism, like Humanism, is explicitly naturalistic so non-religious.

Outside of formal systems, our beliefs should be probabilistic and provisional - always open to new evidence.

It doesn't matter whether people use the terms #Sentientist or #Sentientism.

Lots of people don't like "isms" or labels.

The important thing is that people believe based on evidence & reason and have compassion for all sentient beings.

Anthropocentrism (humans have intrinsic moral value)
⬇️

Sentiocentrism (sentients have intrinsic moral value) + Naturalism (no supernatural) = #Sentientism

⬇️
Biocentrism (biological entities have intrinsic moral value)

⬇️
Ecocentrism (~everything has intrinsic moral value)

Jamie is an excellent guest lecturer and highly recommended. #Sentientism is a fascinating theory that poses questions about religion, humanism, animal rights, and the place of humans in the world. Very much enjoyed and thanks again for speaking this morning. 😊

@Sentientism@sentientism

If you're a lecturer/teacher & would like me to do a remote guest seminar on #Sentientism (evidence, reason & compassion for all sentients) - let me know!

Enjoyed doing another this morning. Thanks @SteveMcCVet + students.

(He can warn you off privately if it didn't go well 🙂)

@lastpositivist Thank you! Love it.

Given your naturalistic stance and your reference to "all sentient beings", does that make you a #Sentientist?

Interested in your thoughts on the term if you get a few mins to skim.

Why are some obvious celeb Sentientists missing? They've upgraded to our "I'm a #Sentientist" wall.

Every step religions take towards adopting rational, compassionate #Humanist or (even better) #Sentientist ethics is to be welcomed.

Once they get there - I'm not sure why you'd still need the supernatural beliefs or the deities.

Keep the art, culture & the community though 💚
