Yes, of course dualism is necessary. You have the causality wrong. I used to be a computational mind person an believe in monism. But the listed reasons have convinced me otherwise. Essentially computation cannot create information. So, if information exists then so does at least one uncomputable process, which obviously implies dualism. Same direction of causality for my religiosity. Since computationalism is untenable, then religion must be true, not visa versa for me.
