nonspiritual

Not about souls

Nonspiritual describes things unrelated to the spirit, soul, or religious matters—concerned instead with the material, practical, or secular.

A nonspiritual person may lack interest in religion or metaphysical questions: She approached death from a purely nonspiritual perspective.

The term contrasts with spiritual without implying hostility toward it.
