What do u mean human centric view?
Do you make laptops for Chicken? Or cell phones for Elephants?
Each species has it's uniqueness. A human can not breath underwater or fly.
When we talk about reincarnation, the philosophical nature of the topic means that species who can assess and act on these can have the necessary tools to achieve it. Who knows, on another planet it could be Hippos who are sentient and humans are bumbling fools.
And our mythology is full of sentient non-humans....and our "gods" are no where near to being human either. If we have to give them some term, they are more "elemental beings" than humans..
Go for it sir. It's philosophy. So, there is nothing you can say that will offend. At worst you can call those who believe in this stuff as fools
