"healing" "sacred" "spiritual" - when used unironically by non-medical people (healing) or non-religious people (sacred, spirituality) I tend to roll my eyes, point at my mouth and enact mock gagging. Yet many people I respect a lot use those terms. Hmmmm...

A spirit is a system that emerges over local interaction rules tailored for producing large scale structure. Without such tailoring, organisms would be chaotic blobs. The relation between spirit and matter is the relationship between software and hardware. Software is immaterial.

again, a useful concept but why-in-hell call it "spirit" ? Software is physical. It is information represented in a physical form. Physical artifacts then make changes in their state based on that information. The emergent result is matter-in-motion.

the #1 google definition of spirit is: "the nonphysical part of a person which is the seat of emotions and character; the soul." Software is physical. It takes some effort to physically ground it but it can be done.

So are you agreeing that those definitions aren't exclusive to religion then?
We are all guilty of prejudices and social conditioning
