Hi Craig:

You say:

All DOCTRINES are by definition INTELLECTUAL.  A PRACTICE may be
strictly SOCIAL if it is ritual, but if it is "worked out intellectually",
it is
(at least partly) INTELLECTUAL (again, by definition).
Andre:

You are right and thank you for responding but you would also agree that
your response is very carefully worded ( 'if' its ritual (?), I am not clear
what you mean here, Craig)) , 'at least partly' , 'by definition' and this
points to the trickiness of this level.
Hope you have also read my response to Chris.

Regards
Andre
