Corinth at the time of Paul, who wrote two letters to the church there aws noted for its loose morals (sexually, financially, etc)
Therefore to say someone had a corinthian spirit was to be rather impolite to say the least. True, perhaps, but there were some lovely folk there as well.
A better 'Corinthian spirit' is to have the Spirit of 1 Corinthians 13.
So, you see, it can have two (almost oppostite) meanings

Paul The Apostle wrote to Corinthians as unto "carnal" children.
There's no consensus among 'divisional' and 'carnal' christians.

Nor was there any consensus among an old or new twelve

So, when the 120 elected Mathias, to replace Judas,
God chose Saul to become Paul(his witness unto all men)

The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

True amateur sport and sportsmanship. Pure, unrewarded competition for competitions sake.
