A good definition of spirituality might be: the way in which you’re sensitive to unsystematized realities.

So to be unspiritual is to be *only* sensitive to systematized realities. This is an alt-definition of “clueless.”

A key mistake is to conflate unsystematized with pre-systematic. The original sin of high modernism is to see the unsystematized as only a starting point of a singular future system. The un-pre gap is where illegibility lives. If you can’t sense the gap, you’re locally clueless.

Contempt is when you can sense the gap but are indifferent to it. Hostility is when you can sense it but feel a reactionary urge to reject it. You’re angry because you wish you were clueless enough to not respond to it.

I’d say intuition is instrumentalized spirituality. It senses through a lens of actionability. Fingerspitzengehful.https://twitter.com/jackinlondon/status/1345475852172189702 …

Is calculative rationalist another term for unspiritual?
-
No, it takes taste to be a good calculation rationalist. Unspiritual is rule-based mindset, capable of only seeing through rules. It either tries to follow a rule, enforce a rule, or make a rule. It has no non-rule-based responses to stimuli, and no imagination.
