Information is real, but what does it look like? What does it weigh? What does it smell like?
Information is coded. The content of information is not dependent on the material on which it is written. It depends on the patterns that the language uses. Because of this, information has unique properties. For exemple it is weightless and odorless. Information is physically dependent on what it is coded upon to exist. This material is almost irrelevant. That gives it its ethereal properties.
Information is colorless and invisible of sorts. Taking apart a USB key, I could be looking at an important set of information but not be capable of even telling if it contains information.
This is important. I hold that spirit is not only very much like information and the processing of it. Spirit and information are in fact, the same thing. But furthermore, to be more precise, supernatural aspects of spirit simply do not exist.
Spirit is information like software and the processing of it. Information offers a more useful understanding of our selve.
