monist

Dualists want to tell us there must be more than merely this mundane world. We must be able to tell them that this world is not mundane nor mere, and that what are separately called physical, mental, spiritual, material, are of one Nature.

(Dualism, of course, is the philosophical notion that reality is divided into two realms: one of meat, dirt, and atoms, the other of emotion, meaning, and mind-soul stuff.)
