All I'm saying is that a god, let alone "God", has no place in a discussion about spirituality without justification. Simply reiterating what you want to insert as the definition of the word "spirit" doesn't do that.
YOU might not be presupposing any kind of god, but your words certainly do.
I don't understand. You want me to ignore the etymological definition of a word just to make it conversant with atheistic points of view?
Like I said, we'd still be living in caves if everyone was that careless with words. No wonder the word "spirit" has so much baggage!!
