Yes, there are reasons why one would think materialism is right, but to assume that it's the final answer, to me, seems to be going in the same vein and flaws as religion does. Again, point me to the work that solved it, not a part of it that "numbers and words are material too" but "We solved it, numbers and words and thoughts and all is material". There's plenty of people in the field that disagree, or, at least have troube to accept materialism as the final answer.

With all honestly and respect, I think that materialism is, in the end, just another non-materialistic religious belief

(btw, I'm not implying that there's no such thing as empirical facts and so on....)
