Well said, jgnat
However I doubt the OP is interested in the idea and philosophy of the word spirit as it pertains to one's existence, based on responses to questions posed on this subject.
That a dictionary defines one aspect of spirit as the immaterial nature of a person's existence doesn't seem to qualify as an answer.
Only hard evidence proving the existence of discrete spirit beings is allowed it would seem.

You could always ask rather than assume.

That's never been said by anyone. Please don't make things up.

That simply replaces one term with no meaning with another with no meaning. It does nothing to get us closer to an answer.
Viv when did the word " spirit" come in to existence i think was relevent.
Why?
Because it raised a question that added to the debate and ot took us to.
Jgnats point " the word is not the thing
Gravity existed before the word did"
Which you yourself said was a good point.
Anyway i appreciate your thread and i thank you for your kind replyd. Hope you find the answer your looking for.

I did ask and the question was dismissed and/or ignored as irrelevant. Please be consistent in your answers.

I made nothing up. You have no interest in discussing this aspect of the word. Perhaps you should be more discrete and specific in your questions.

I beg to differ that it has no meaning. Philosophy has meaning, and is as intangible as it's subject. That's the point I and others try to make that you dismiss.

Show me specifically where I said I wasn't interested? You should note that "not being interested" is wildly different from attempting to use that as anaswer to a specific question.
I made nothing up. I did ask a couple pages ago which definition of spirit was relevant here and was ignored, again.
Which has nothing to do with hard evidence. You're still wide of the mark and trying to conflate unrelated items to build a false narrative.

Philosophy does have meaning and that's not at all what I dismissed. You're still conflating unrelated items.
We are still no closer to an answer.

What does that mean?
The puppy is still chasing its tail.
Don't speak that way of your cohorts, FHN. It's not as if you've fared any better.
Have a , Viviane. Sounds like a splendid idea if I say so myself.
Yeah, you probably do need a few drinks.
