喜樂美語

Picture a living body doing what living bodies do — breathing, healing, — with nobody deciding it. Biological points at that layer: what happens because a thing is alive. From there the word goes three ways: to the science that studies it, to weapons that turn living against people, and to the parent whose body you actually came from.

可以想成：一具活著的身體自己在運作——呼吸、癒合、變老，沒有人下指令。biological 就是指著這一層說話：因為「它是活的」才會發生的事。從這裡它岔出三個方向：研究這一層的那門科學、把活的病菌拿來當武器的那種攻擊，還有你身體真正來自的那位父母。判斷用不用這個字，關鍵在於「這件事是不是生命本身造成的」。
