Michael Chalmers replied to Dizzi90's discussion 'Determinism: Do We Have to?' in the group Atheist Philosophers"Are you mistaking physical processes that occur within the brain with actual thought? Whilst a machine can recognise & capture the activity, it doesn't tell you the detail of the thought.
Determinism has created the…"
Michael Chalmers replied to David Conrad's discussion 'Disappointment with the grammar and spelling of some TA users'"On a practical level Kris, where would you draw the line?
Miss spelling?
Poor Grammar?

Michael Chalmers replied to Unseen's discussion 'Any Atheist Republicans Here? Why?!!!'"An Atheist economic conservative is probably just as likely to vote Republican over Democrat.

I wonder how many atheists…"
Michael Chalmers replied to Skycomet the Fallen Angel's discussion 'Please Help! Confusion, Disturbing Nightmare, and Still Trying to Adjust to Life as an Atheist'"I agree with Simon - (well put).
I too feel sad for 'believers' however my moments of sadness for them are fleeting. My reasoning being I will help them if they have an open mind, but only they can open their mind. If they are unwilling to…"
Michael Chalmers replied to Sherif's discussion 'Your thoughts on the Muhammad video and the way people have responded to it' in the group الملحـدين المصـريين - Egyptian Atheists"The reaction of people to the Mohammed video shows me why it is important to teach my children about atheism, it's importance & to illustrate the problems of religion.
