In what way do you mean "How can an electrical signal be true?" That question doesn't even make sense. Nobody claimed that electrical signal were true. Rather that thoughts were a phenomona occuring due to electrical and chemical (and other?) physical activity.
Rejecting dualism rejects free will. Without free will we cannot be moral. Without morality, there is no christian ethic.
Rejecting dualism rejects a soul, which rejects an afterlife.
No morality, no afterlife. Whats left of Christianity?
