The video version of our conversation is here on YouTube.

In these Sentientist Conversations (subscribe!), we talk about the two most important questions: “what’s real?” & “what matters?”. Sentientism is “evidence, commitment & compassion for all sentient beings.”

We discuss:

  • Jasmin’s activist journey & roles (& books)
  • Gaslighting re: animal agriculture
  • 1980’s milk & meat marketing
  • Atheism, naturalism, comparative religion
  • Compassion in religion, but also serious ethical problems
  • Growing up as a reform Jew, celebrating Christmas & Hannukah
  • The mental gymnastics more “moderate” religions (like reform Judaism) have to do to move away from the harmful ethics at the core of many religions
  • Humanism’s focus on the human species
  • Do kids start out naturalistic and then get taught fabrications?
  • And much more...
  • You can find Jasmin at @jasmin_singer & jasminsinger.com. Subscribe to Our Hen House as well as to the Sentientism podcast!
