I curiously await your thoughts.
All great and wonderful questions i would assume.
No what exactly is a "spirit"?
So you have no thoughts to offer concerning those questions?
You ask me "exactly what is a spirit"?
From a scientific point of view that's simple. I have no clue. This is why I choose philosophies that address mysticism. It's a mystery.
Abstractly, spirit is simply the ultimate being that experiences reality. How that actually works, or what constitutes the true nature of spirit, eludes me just as much as the true nature of quantum fields eludes scientists.
Just like the scientists, I don't need to understand the true nature of something to know that it exists. Something must be experiencing this life. Whatever it is that is having this experience is "spirit".
That's the best I can offer.
Christian - A moron who believes that an all-benevolent God can simultaneously be a hateful jealous male-chauvinistic pig.
Wiccan - The epitome of cerebral evolution having mastered the magical powers of the universe and is in eternal harmony with the mind of God.
Atheist - An ill-defined term that means something different to everyone who uses it.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
Clearly Jesus (a fictitious character or otherwise) will forgive people if they merely know not what they do
For the Bible Tells us so!
