Send us a text

This week's episode focusses on humanistic approaches to both human and animal rights issues.  Following recent proposed changes to the UK's asylum policy,   AJ, Audrey (Assoc. Black Humanists) & James explore humanistic perspectives on immigration, climate change and the role of empathy in approaching global political issues.

In our guest interview with Jamie Woodhouse of Sentientism.info, we explore  how animals rights should be incorporated into Humanism, the goals of the growing Sentientism movement and Jamie's views on AI, lab grown meat and defining 'Sentience'.

Our panel also share their views on whether Humanists should go vegan and become Sentientists. Finally our mailbag question poses, whether a humanist can retain religious faith.
