Well, the spirit isn't immortal either because it was never alive. The self obviously dies as well and didn't exist before birth. The spirit creatures (angels, seraphs, cherubs, and demons the later of which will be destroyed) in heaven as told by the Bible were all created except for the creator Jehovah God. So he would be the only real immortal spirit.

Sure. You wouldn't be the first.

Uh-huh.
