2°) My real problem is when I try to add a second predicate (list of files in FILTER_2) after the first predicate ( FILTER_1 )
This solution has evolved over the weekend but as there have been no further replies I'll update in-place.

My final solution avoids changes of $IFS and the set -f builtin. Firstly an example of the solution using some dummy directories and files in /tmp. Note whitespace is used in $MY_PATH to show this method supports that situation. I also create a file matching .dummy* to highlight any erroneous expansions from PWD:
Code:
$ MY_PATH="/tmp/jc dole"
$ mkdir -p "$MY_PATH"/{test,.local/share/{kscreen,ballo},.dbus}
$ touch "$MY_PATH"/{test,.local/share/{kscreen,ballo},.dbus}/{test{1,2},.direct{A,B,C},.Xauthority,.xsession1,.bash_history}
$ touch .direct_Dummy_PWD_File
$ FA=( -path "$MY_PATH"/.local/share/kscreen -o -path "$MY_PATH"/.local/share/ballo -o -path "$MY_PATH"/.dbus )
$ FB=( ! -name .direct\*  ! -name .Xauthority  ! -name .xsession\*  ! -name .bash_history )

$ find "$MY_PATH"  -type d \( "${FA[@]}" \)  -prune -o -type f \( "${FB[@]}" -print \)
/tmp/jc dole/test/test1
/tmp/jc dole/test/test2

$ rm .direct_Dummy_PWD_File

Below I have updated the original script to use this method.

I'm a little unsure why you have the CHERCHE() function, but have continued to use it below as it could be a simplified stub for the actual function you are using to process these files. However, there is now no need to test for directories at the top of CHERCHE(), as find no longer passes unwanted directory names to the function.

Code:
function CHERCHE () {
    caller="$1"
    shift
    MY_PATH1="$@" 
    echo "doing : $MY_PATH1"
    /usr/bin/kate "$MY_PATH1"
}
export -f CHERCHE

MY_PATH="/home/bidon"

FILTRE_1=( -path  "$MY_PATH"/.local/share/kscreen  -o -path  "$MY_PATH"/.local/share/baloo -o -path  "$MY_PATH"/.dbus )
FILTRE_2=( ! -name .direct\*  ! -name .Xauthority  ! -name .xsession\*  ! -name .bash_history )

find "$MY_PATH"  -type d \( "${FILTRE_1[@]}" \)  -prune -o -type f \( "${FILTRE_2[@]}" -exec bash -c "CHERCHE \"$0\" {}" \; \)
