Spanish term

Somos biología pero no biologismo.

Spanish to English Other Philosophy Medical/Scientific/Religious/Philosophical - if all 4 are possible!
Hello to you all,

This phrase or sentence is contained in a text entitled: LOS MÉDICOS CATÓLICOS Y LA BIOÉTICA EN EL FUTURO DE LA EUROPA CONTEMPORÁNEA. This text deals with medical science as seen through the eyes of the 'Federación Internacional de Asociaciones Médicas Católicas (F.I.A.M.C.)'.

There are plenty of references to 'biologismo' on the Internet, but can anyone help me with the translation of this particular phrase?

Many thanks.

Context

Pensar siempre que el ser humano es biológico, psicológico, familiar, social y espiritual. Se debe siempre tratar la unidad del ser humano teniendo en cuenta estas facetas. Somos biología pero no biologismo. Somos psicología pero no psicologismo. Formamos parte de una familia natural o extendida que también tiene sus derechos. Sin ser socialistas, formamos parte de una sociedad a la que hemos de aportar algo pero que no nos puede quitar lo esencial. Somos espíritu pero no somos espiritualistas. Al final de nuestra vidas terrenas quedará para siempre el bien que hayamos hecho y el mal transformado que nos haya sido perdonado.
