What are non-physical neurones? — Banno

I didn't use the term non-physical neurones, you did.

OR is it the information you think non-physical? — Banno

I think information cannot be non-physical. For example, thoughts have a non-physical aspect but are always supported by physical neurons (as in many millions into the billions).

Physicalism thinks it leaves dualism behind, when in fact it simply ignores the subjective dimension of experience that is built into , but hidden within, the very assumptions of physicalism. — Joshs

This is just the thing I'd like to sort through with a birds eye view of the problem. My approach would be to develop physicalism to the point that the neuron instantiated non-physicals are recognized as emergent from physical matter. Then you are back to dualism with a defined form of the non-physical such as mind, thought, ideas and so on.
The general form that emerges is [neurons,(an instantiated non-physical)].
Some examples would be:
Information is a neuron instantiated non-physical.
Mind is a neuron instantiated non-physical.
Thought is a neuron instantiated non-physical.
Ideas are a neuron instantiated non-physical.

Philosophy and it's subdivisions also take this general form:
Philosophy is a neuron instantiated non-physical.
Dualism is a neuron instantiated non-physical.
Monism is a neuron instantiated non-physical.
Physicalism is a neuron instantiated non-physical.
...and on and on. The neuron part would be millions or billions of neurons, whatever is required to instantiate specific content.
I'm a little weak on the history of philosophy but you give a good overview. I only recognized a few names you covered, so I'm working on matching names to philosophy.
