What Stuff Make Up The Spirit And The Spiritual Are: An Assertion

I've been developing this thought quite a bit, and hinted it here before, but this my assertion:
There is no distinction between the spiritual and other categories of immaterial (words, abstraction, math, logic, laws, but not limited to those)
Or to put it in another way:
The same stuff that makes words, abstraction, math, logic, laws, etc. immaterial is the same stuff spirit is made out of.
Or to put it in another way:
Spirit = words, abstraction, math, logic, laws

What about where spirit seems to interact with physical?
Well, all physical stuff have an abstract structure, so a physical manifestation of a spirit is simply molding that abstract structure to its physical equivalent.

What is a spirit, then?
A spirit is a personality/person in hidden in abstraction. (The devil in the details)
We can see this in fiction a lot, for example, Death is personified as a Grim Reaper, while we all know death doesn't really look like that, because death is abstract.... or does he?
We know death manifests as a being in Revelation, so an abstract concept personified.

Etc. You can make your own logical conclusions/questions with it.

John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
