This is cool, thanks for doing it and sharing the work here

I'm very excited to see this.

One minor correction: Toby Ord assigns a 1-in-6 chance of existential catastrophe this century, which isn't equivalent to a 1-in-6 chance of human extinction.

Fantastic! Looking forward to reading this properly, looks super interesting at first read, especially appreciated the section on animal welfare.

Thank you! I hope utilitarians and Christians can cooperate more on our points of agreement. An evangelical Christian friend of mine who’s a Young Earth Creationist surprised me when he expressed sympathy for utilitarianism. The catch being that he doesn’t care about the welfare of non-human animals. (On that note, I’d argue that the first statement of utilitarianism, and one which referenced all sentient beings, was made by the Buddhist philosopher Santideva in the 8th Century).
