I am leveling my priest (holy). What is the best stat for a holy priest? The real question is what's the #1 stat #2 stat #3 stat.?
I was thinking
#1 Is sprit
#2 Is Int.
#3 Stam.
Is this correct?

Depends on what level you are and what you're doing... if you're like me, at level 24, I go for:
1. Spirit
2. Int/Sta
3. Spell healing
4. Spell damage
However, the reasoning for this is:
1. I have Spirit Tap. Without this, spirit seems pretty useless for quite a while. Spirit Tap is a Shadow Talent.
2. More mp/hp is always helpful, especially since I like to heal for my friends in instances around my level.
3. Same as above, extra healing means extra power behind my heals.
4. Extra damage comes with healing, and while not used much in a group, is very nice for a little extra kick while soloing.
If I ONLY instanced, it would be different (more mana, spirit next, then healing). If I was 70, I assume healing, mp5, and spell crit would play into the equation before anything else. If I only soloed, spell damage would be higher than healing.
Get the gist?

I think spirit is still pretty important even for Holy priests because priests can time heals to stay out of the five second rule, allowing for spirit based mana regeneration even without spirit tap. Intellect is also pretty important, bigger mana pool is always helpful. Stamina should not be neglected either, but if you are in a good group with people you trust not to get you killed you shouldn't have to worry about having massive hit points. Honestly, I don't think I would focus on just one of those stats as a "best" one, I would try to get as much of all of them as I could.
Try to look for gear with either plus damage/healing or plus healing, in addition to the Auction House perennials "Of the Owl, Of the Whale" "Of the Eagle" is nice too, but I really like Owl and Whale stuff for my lowbie priests.
While I understand you want to level as Holy, five points in spirit tap are a nice boost to leveling.
