I think we already have better words for those however, rendering the word "spirit" obsolete. Sorta like phlogiston.

Bullshit.

Phlogiston ... that really burns my ass. It wouldn't explain wind and breeze or spirit creatures though, would it? you know what I think? I think you just hate the word spirit on principal.

Besides - it wouldn't explain pneumatic or pneumonia.

Anyway conciousness? How come you can’t spell consciousness but you can spell phlogiston? Pushed the wrong thingamajig …


or are you STONED?
