A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all people. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don't function as we were meant to. We break. We fall apart. We numb. We ache. We hurt others. We get sick.

Thus, biologically speaking the American people are literally only half an immigrant people.
The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is a unique and biologically special place that should be preserved.
Each child is biologically required to have a mother. Fatherhood is a well-regarded theory, but motherhood is a fact.
