Actually, Kate, I apologize. I shouldn't have said STFU. That was rude of me. I should have known your years of being a JW, the depression and rejection resulting from getting DF'ed and the alcholism would have left you a shell of a broken person unable to handle adult conversation. I'll strive in the future to remember all of that and treat you more gently and appropriately to your faculties.

What is spirit, exactly?
by Viviane ini've always wondered that.
recently i asked that question on another thread and didn't really get ananswer.
cofty made an excellent point that we often hear what it isn't, but that really isn't useful.. so, what is it?

Kate, this thread is not about me. Apologize and stay on topic or take it to PM. Thank you.

I am afraid "spirit" is here to stay, even if it just refers to the one that you buy in bottles
Vidquin, I don't think anyone is debating that the word spirit has valid uses, almost always a metaphor. The topic of this thread is trying to determine what spirit stuff angels and demons or "life force" is comprised of.
So far, we are no closer than when we started.

Sorry my intereptation of everything you have posted in response to my posts has never been polite, and always rude.
No one has called you name or made up lies about you. I've never been rude to you, just not allowed you to post dishonest assertions regarding me.
Contribute to the thread or STFU with your rude lies.
I am not lying about anything, show me one statement that I have made that is a lie.
Already done. Re-read the thread if you don't remember.
Contribute to the thread or STFU.

Well that's not very lady like is it? I am only trying to find common ground with you. This is an abusive response and I predicted the thread would escalate to this because we both always need the last word. I know it's a fault of mine, but I also know you well enough to know that you like the last word too.
What does ladylike have to do with your continual rudeness and posting lies about me? I've politely asked you to stop. If you don't like what happens next, you really should re-evaluate how you treat others.
Viv, you need to calm down and stop taking things so seriously and personally. I answered your OP and all I got back was a dissmissive and intimidating response.
You don't have the capapcity to make me NOT calm. Please stop making ignorant assumptions about me. Every post you have made regarding the topic has been discussed. Every post you made regarding me posting ignorant and dishonest assertions has been dealt with appropriately.
If you don't like getting treated as someone posting dishonest lies about someone, stop posting dishonest lies.

I do see your point Snare, but how can we know if someone is nice if they're not personal?
The very first post you ever wrote to me was making untrue assertions about me. I've asked you to stop that rude behavior several times. Here's your last hint, since I've not beenan asshole to you, that's how you know I'm not an asshole. It's almost like you have pay attention to the fact that I'm not beating you up to know I'm not beating you up.

I needed a intelligent debater to chat with.
Kate, stop with the insults. No one appreciates a jerk. Contribute to the topic or leave.

LOL! Very funny Caliber, the thing is we come here to get help or to help others. I want to help Viv, I can see she is a product of WT and her comunication style is not her fault.
You know exactly nothing about me. Please stop making 100% ignorant assertions about me. IOW, stop being an asshole by continuing to lie and pretend to have any knowledge of me. If you have something to contribute to the the thread reagarding the topic, please do so.
Otherwise, STFU.
I am not wrong about you at all Viv, you just can't see it yourself yet. I know exactly where your comming from because I came from the same place too, I understand how deprogramming from a cult works and how it affects people in different ways, I can see how you have been damaged by this awful cult.

But I feel in that space between it all, there is an energy and a conneciton that is by definition a power to life and all things. Is that god and spirit? Not in my opinion. I think spirit is the only truth, and that enegry of life is a common thread.
And now you've turned it into "life force" and put it into the "I don't know" pile. Still no closer to an answer of what spirit is made of.

Free2be me, that's an interesting one. It can be summed up as "that which exists" or, as Carl Sagan put it, the cosmos. That which is, ever was or will be. It's a pretty broad definition, but the the only one so far that says what it is.
Of course, that completely leaves out the supernatural, angels, demons, holy spirit or any gods.
