I would consider myself a materialist, if I had to pick a side. My point, perhaps not well made, is that dualism is alive and well in modern neuroscience, despite the fact that almost all modern neuroscientists will tell you that they are strict materialists. Merely stating that "consciousness comes from the brain" does nothing to solve the problem of consciousness (if such a thing exists).
