It was to say that if determinism is the thesis that we are caught up 
in causal chains, then it is not destructive of moral reasoning because 
moral reasoning is something that occurs partly _because_ of causal 
chains.  Moral reasoning _needs_ causal chains.  And if that's the 
case, why on earth would determinism destroy moral reasoning?

That's basically what Dennett said in the interview Ham and Craig 
referenced, and it's a great point.

Matt:
That's good.  Being in agreement with Dennett, especially about 
free will, is a gold standard for me.
