I'm pretty sure I just saw someone on A Daily Show suggesting that the roots of the organic food movement are to be found in German Organicism. He even when on to suggest that, since the Nazi's co-opted much of Organicism (and Romanticism in general), that the organic food movement in the US is fascist.
It is a world of words to the end of it, but that only means we have to be careful how we use them. Cognates and homonyms don't make an argument.

I wish I could watch that whole interview, it was a great John Stewart moment.
