Hi Marsha

I would say that within the framework of the MOQ, inorganic and
biological patterns are physical. We can touch them, examine them.
Social and intellectual patterns are mental... like the President of
the United States. There is no way to physically tell the President
apart from any other human being by examination. So to answer your
question, no, not all levels are "just thinking." In addition, there
seem to social patterns of value that are not intellectual, like
saying "Bless you" when someone sneezes. Those types of patterns are
ingrained in us to the extent that we really don't think about it.
