Dualism versus materialism (Identity)

dhw: Thank you. Just one more contradiction in your reply. My soul/me does not mean “me as material”! “You” in life consist of your body and your soul, but it is your soul that is in charge. Therefore – according to your dualistic beliefs – it must be the immaterial soul that comes up with immaterial ideas and directs your material brain to implement them materially.

I view material me doing my thinking through my material brain using my immaterial consciousness as an immaterial mechanism to create the attributes of my soul which is within the consciousness I have received in my brain.
