      "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...

      I perceive most spirituality as a phantom limb that developed after the amputation of culture. The need to be part of something larger than the socioeconomic here and now is by itself not woo.

      'I' respectfully disagree. Most uses of 'spirituality' can be defined as "the quality of being concerned with the human spirit or soul as opposed to material or physical things." which is as old as Humans are or at least when our basic needs as Humans were met 🙏

      But suppose one rejects Cartesian dualism - ie that there are no "souls or spirits"?

      A spirit is simply a software, specifically, an operating system for an autonomous robot. Humans clearly have spirits, societies do, and even plants do, because they are all autonomous robots that can be characterized by the software they run on.

      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.

      to be more precise "matter/energy in motion"

      “Matter in motion” is usually just called ‘momentum’.

      Loading seems to be taking a while.

      Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
