Define Organic Meaning

Organic
1) In chemistry, a term used to describe any molecule held together by a chain of carbon atoms.

2) Used to describe the characteristics of a living system (for example a creature's body or an entire habitat) consisting of smoothly running interacting parts and shaped by the processes of Darwinian evolution.

3) As an analogy in the creative process, used to describe a work such as a novel or movie script made in such a way that the various parts developed as they were written/painted/whatever, one from another, rather than sticking rigidly to a preconceived plan.

4) In popular culture, a term applied in line with the most rabid intentions of New Age pseudoscience, ultimately from the mouths of people who would like to have scientists burned at the stake. Much favoured by people who use chemical as an unqualified snarl word. Artificial fertilisers are decried as poison, despite the fact that they contain the same chemical compounds that plants derive from "natural" fertilisers; if these compounds were real poisons, our biosphere would have been in serious doo-doo long ago. Anything coming from a lab is allegedly ipso facto evil and foul, even if its molecular structure is identical to that of compounds found in Nature. Genetic engineering is seen as the foul left hand of Satan, based on arguments that are about as rational as those for the existence of the fellah downstairs, too. Organic farming is held by its propagandists to be the farming of the future ... and it might be, at least if the human population of the Earth drops by 99 percent. Typical stock in trade arguments from the "organic" movement, as elsewhere in the witchypoo "alternative" movement, consist of appeals to fear, to irrationality and to conspiracy theories about Big Business ... but, such has been the success of the propaganda campaign over the last few decades, nobody seems to subject "organic" produce to the same safety standards. "Organic" production requires far more acreage than conventional farming methods to produce the same yield. It is typically shilled for by celebrities, who after all often have more money than sense and can afford to buy the stuff, and much beloved of fad dieters who don't eat that much anyway. All in all, one of the movements that make one genuinely fearful for the future of our technological civilisation.

lets just take it slow and see where this relationship goes organically, without trying to force things
By Alexis
Organic
1) Used to describe naturally occurring molecules, materials, or processes.

2) Marketing ploy to profiteer from indoctrinated hipsters by selling food at increased prices that was grown and cultivated using lower cost medieval farming methods, such as avoidance of the use of modern pesticides which kill or drive off disease breeding insects, or the use of modern fertilizers or genetic modification to make crops and livestock more resistant to disease and increase yields.

3) A Marxist assault on capitalist food production through the promotion of pseudoscience and urban legends.

Elder Hippie: "This sandwich is so organic."

Rational Person: "So is the mold on the bread and the cockroach legs in the meat."

Yak feces, python venom, the Bubonic Plague, boogers, cancerous tumors, and Fromunder Cheese are all organic.
By Brinna
Organic
1. Of, relating to, or derived from living organisms.

2. Also means foods produced without artificial chemicals, preservatives, or fertilizers.

People who say their food is "organic" are stupid because all foods are organic regardless chemicals added, unless they just eat rocks or something.
By Babara
Organic
Same old crapola, different packaging and marketing, three to six times the cost. Organic foods can also be even more harmful than regular foods because the products are never officially tested for any carcinogens or other harmful products that result from spraying with "organic" pesticides. Also, the methods of organic farming are very wasteful, since it takes quite a while for manure and compost to be absorbed by plants, and pests are allowed to eat the crop, thus causing much lower crop yields on the same amount of land, compared to modern artificial spray-and sprinkle farming methods.

If we devoted all agricultural methods to organic farming, most of the Earth's population would starve to death before any significant results occur.
