Stay with me here! "Enlightenment thinking" is often used as short hand for "scientific thinking" -- and that it was *in its time*
The ideas of cartesian Dualism are informed by a Christian or at least Christian-Diest perspective, taking their cues from Christian ideas of the spirt/soul which can outlive us to go to Heaven.
From a contemporary scientific perspective we have no evidence of any of this either way and some of it still appears to be non-falsifiable so not really science. 3/
