Authoritative reference works define dualism much more broadly than “consciousness is a property of souls.” The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy says that, in philosophy of mind, dualism is the theory that mind and body (or the mental and the physical) are fundamentally different kinds of things. It also explicitly distinguishes multiple varieties of dualism, including substance dualism and property dualism.

That matters here because the post's wording collapses all dualism into one religiously loaded subtype. A substance dualist may posit souls or immaterial minds, but a property dualist does not define consciousness as a property of souls; instead, property dualists hold that conscious properties are not reducible to physical properties even when instantiated by physical organisms. So the post's definition is not just simplified — it is inaccurate as a definition of dualism in general.
