quick reply before running out the door on errands: (mean of you to be up early and responding so fast!)

"But for sure, one of the capabilities that a spiritual being has in plentiful measure is the ability to paint out wide areas of knowing, in order to enjoy the experience of working through the ignorance and discovering the knowing behind it."

my mind SHOUTS "fallacy of 'affirming the consequent'" (could be a couple others..I need to brush up)..but the claim is stating that there IS a 'spiritual being' in order to make remarks about it!

more later, perhaps...
