# Sentientism
A moral philosophy founded on concern for the well-being of all sentient beings.
Sentientism is the natural expansion of humanism. The crucial difference is concerned with the welfare of all sentient beings, not just humans. That in fact, we should act in the concerns and interest of all creatures that have the capacity for happiness and suffering, not only those that look like us.
