Ageed, doing it out of anger has already been judged. Judgment is over and doesn’t mean we can’t proceed to proper reaction in my thinking.
I do, as in what did Jesus cast out, where to, and other reasons describing empirical aspects of a spirit not being bound to the body such as love and hate won’t reside together, a spirit of fear sread across the room (sharing, or contagion), or everyone’s sentiment soured when he walked into the room, his meaness rubbed off on me, I was happy this morning. Transitoyr, temporal.
The question is like a dent in a car, remove the dent and the car remains, but where is the dent? Does a mood disappear like the dent, or does it have its own foundation that also persists outside us?
Not so much implying a the non-corporal mindless and compelling entity and possession in the religious sense. That it may be, but I note the temporal and conveyance nature as well as some like vengeance and deceit will reside together but neither welcome a merciful spirit. They don’t all agree or get along.
As to the empirical nature of spirit. I suspect you know the root word is breath, to bring life to something, and seemingly around the time of the Greeks we start to see the definition of spirit as compelling, intent, and motive in legal systems treating motives as separate from words (mind) and actions (body) where the spirit is instead describing an initiator of the two influencing how we think and form our words. The Bible seems silent on describing this initiator except through it fruits that are known and seen. Separate from the mind. The tone of our voice, attitude, and emotions are attributed to the spirit.
I’ve seen many who let their spirit decide how to respond instead of the other way around. Anger won’t show any mercy or kindness.
A counterview is we developed each emotion individually and keep them in our closet where they don’t get along. Casting out may only be the suppression of natural bodily responses?
I mostly work from what’s functionable and of good intent. If I tell myself I don’t want to feel that way and change my attitude, I may misuderstand it’s true nature but if it seems good, acceptable, and resolves the problem, I’ll accept it as is because of the need and I see no ill intent (spirit).
