    One of the most urgent challenges for Humanists and for anyone who wants to lead a truly considered life - is the question of how we treat non-human sentient beings. I was lucky to discuss that question with AC Grayling for @Sentientism. Thanks AC!

    I wish that I was taught about humanism as a >5 year old - instead of all that religious stuff! It left me having to work it out for myself!

      Hard-won knowledge is best.

      Mike the hedgehog you decide that for yourself.
      Would you like to be punched?
      Does it hurt if someone punches you?
      Would being punched upset you/ make you angry and use violence back to the person who punched you?
      If you know being punched hurts, causes you upset, anger, discomfort, then you can realise that would be the same for anyone else.
      Therefore you don't punch someone because you know it hurts, causes upset etc.
      Theres one very quick bit of social order forming.
      You apply the same for stealing someone else's property, how do we decide how to help other people in society, how to deal with people who break the rules we live by.
