HMTH,
I suspect that you might be simply baiting people on this thread to frusterate them with circular questioning just for your kicks. However, because I honestly don't think you're a moron (and hope you are not trolling), let me answer every single question you might be asking when you ask "do you believe in a spirit". I was hoping you would simply just define the term for me so I wouldn't have to go through all these. If you are just being a smart ass just for the sake of trolling, please let me know so I can simply ignore you and not take you seriously...
1. Do you believe in the principle of conscious life? Yes
2. Do you believe in an incoporeal, living part of humanity? No.
3. Do you believe in a soul, as separating from the body at death? No.
4. Do you believe in supernatural beings (fairies, sprites, angels, demons, gods, etc.)? No
5. Do you believe in an attitude or principle that inspires, animates, or pervades thought, feeling, or action? Yes
6. Do you believe in a divine influence? No
7. Do you believe in a spirit that completes the third part of the "holy trinity"? I do not believe in any part of the trinity.
8. Do you believe that people can be observed to have differing dispositions or attitudes in terms of vigor, courage, and/or firmness of intent? Yes
According to my dictionary, there are 17 additional definitions of "spirit". Let me know if these 8 don't cover what you're asking...
