I think he's under the impression that everything is spiritual in nature. Basically it's less about people making decisions, etc... and more about being influenced by spirits.
Problem i have with this idea is it removes personal responsibility because you can always blame it on a spirit.
Seems many people from African nations have this overly spiritualized concept about how things.
Though in this guys case he seems to think if he uses the same confusing statement over and over we'll magically understand.

I googled this:
“Spiritual marriage or chaste marriage comes from the original divine law that marriage should be the union between soulmates who are attracted to each other by divine magnetism and not by the animal magnetism of sexual activity.”
It reminds me of this:
[36] If any one thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his betrothed, if his passions are strong, and it has to be, let him do as he wishes: let them marry -- it is no sin.
[37] But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well.
[38] So that he who marries his betrothed does well; and he who refrains from marriage will do better. 1 Cor 7:36-38 RSV

You all are presenting as just a tad culturally insensitive towards this guy 
And really, all anyone has done is ask what he means. No one really understands. How is it insensitive to tell someone you don't know what they mean and to ask him?
Notice he is saying 'destroy' a spiritual wife. Destroy.
