Memory and thinking processes are reactions and synapses firing in the brain.
It's not "just" in the sense that there's a lot of emergence and complexity when these things all work together but it is "just" in the sense that these are all physical unmagical processes.
My point was that the original comment is a low-level view with missing details that gives little insight on the complexity of the phenomenon, not a support for dualism. It's all brain tissues and the information they encode.
I think we agree and it was fun to write this out.
