"Evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings." Sentientism is a simple worldview or philosophy that suggests how we should decide what is true and who should matter morally. It's committed to using evidence and reason and grants moral consideration to all sentient beings. Sentience is the capacity to experience things - whether bad (suffering) or good (flourishing). In practical terms, most people interpret current science as indicating that sentient beings are, so far, human and non-human animals.
