You better stop now before you beclown yourself even more than you already have. Anyone can see that I did NOT skip the part about about epiphenomenalism in my quote.  Please go on though...display your complete ignorance for all the world to see. The zombies in question have nothing to do with atoms behaving a certain way.  He is talking about P-zombies, people that behave in every way like everyone else but do not experience qualia. It is a very very famous thought problem by David Chalmers and the fact that you don't know about it just shows that you haven't a clue.

I'm not the one who buys into a book that doesn't get the sun and moon scientifically correct. I am not the one who buys into a book that has a story about mass genocide which ends up with a limited gene pool, do tell, who did Noah's family have sex with according to you without incest?

Ok fine, then I will look that up, but still. Dennett isn't basing anything he says on old book of myth. 

According to this article Dennett REJECTS epiphenomenalism and qualia based on the antiquated idea I do too. If you buy into it then you are fooling yourself.

There, so now everyone can read it. Now again, explain to me where you think Dennett is justifying zombies like in a horror movie?
