Biophilia really is quite an unfortunate sounding word. If I may - ‘bio’ sounds very... organic, but also a bit limited to the physical. If we were to instead consider the metaphysical so it can expand to include the spiritual, the divine, the awe... does ‘awephilia’ sounds better? Or does it make you think of Hamlet? Or does it sound too much like ’awful’?
Can I entertain both germ and terrain theory for a hot second? Yes, it’s important to keep the aquarium clean, but if non-living organisms sometime enter our bodies and animate to give us an update, can’t that be true as well? Instead of looking at a virus as something to be afraid of, maybe it’s completely necessary, who are we to question the intelligent design that keeps evolving and getting smarter?
Biophilia. Yep, that's me, the Druid that loves me some trees. 😁 I love nature, except when it's hot. Good natured nature when it's cold or at least below 70F. --- There's not much better than a walk through the woods.
