I say this because they are almost always used by theorists outside of morality. as in, they are used to elicit a moral response from you without ever covering why they are morally wrong

It's kind of adorable that you're willing to treat basic ass "objective good vs objective evil" as though it was a complicated or controversial idea. I was raised Catholic, it's not that I'm unfamiliar with the arguments for objective Morality, it's that I haven't encountered one that isn't rooted in word games about pre-newtonian understandings of the world, or otherwise outright superstition.
It is extremely obvious, to the point of practically being self evident, that people experience reality subjectively. Unless you'd like to present an argument for why it isn't

I have actually heard people irl use the word 'Spirit.' Took a lot of effort to not burst out laughing.

>>11136605
Spirit is basically just the metaphysical qualities of a person, place, thing, idea, and perhaps an action. It's a lot less of a mouthful to say that people shake hands before and after wrestling matches "in the spirit of sportsmanship", than "for the purpose of reflecting, celebrating, or actualizing the metaphysical qualities of sportsmanship", and it's closer to what the wrestlers are consciously doing, "spirit" being both a literal shorthand and a mental shortcut to the gist of understanding what spirit actually is - which is all that anyone really ever needs to communicate the idea of spirit and have it be understood enough to work. All these words I'm using to try to push my understanding of the term are only an explanation of a common experience that someone could only not understand because he is living in a context that is disconnected from spirituality.

>>11134534
They presuppose very questionable notions of justice yet are treated like scientific facts. The postwar era really is a a disgusting place.

>implying 99% of people don't use it as synonym for the supernatural religious soul.

>>11135022
I knew someone who would say "another-ing" at first I thought it was a weird slip but they kept saying it consistently and in different conjugations "another", "anothered"...
In mainstream circles people tend to use "other" as a term for social exclusion (usually cognitive) and I think it's as good as any other way to describe the phenomenon. There are definitely more interesting ways to apply it, though

>>11135080
this is a fault of the English language that doesn't have many words that carry aspect.

>>11136976
The "problem" of Alan Watts has never been conceptual. It's in the lack of rigor. His goal I don't think was ever to approach concepts academically but to create samples for soundcloud artists to use decades later.
