The Human Question

I certainly ain't fer dualism, but I think that merely pointing to the complexity of the brain or to correlations between processes taking play its parts and reported is not sufficient to destroy dualism. I prefer to look for a more robust refutation, and in that spirit, I would first offer an (ironic) defense of dualism of the sort that would recognize the need for the complexity of operation in the brain.  The argument that defeats this not-so-lame version of dualism is one that gives us insights into an alternative to both dualism AND to materialistic monism.
