unspiritual
Lacking inner depth
Unspiritual describes someone or something lacking spiritual concern or awareness—materialistic, worldly, focused on physical rather than transcendent matters.
A person may be called unspiritual if they show no interest in religion, meditation, or inner life: He was thoroughly unspiritual, caring only about money and status.
The word often carries mild disapproval.
