The Appeal to Nature, also erroneously called the Naturalistic Fallacy, involves assuming something is good or correct on the basis that it happens in nature, is bad because it does not, or that something is good because it "comes naturally" in some way. This is fallacious because it assumes the "natural" to be an ideal state without argument, effectively using it as a synonym for "desirable" or "normal." This is a form of equivocation fallacy, because "natural" can mean "consonant to a thing's nature, proper, fitting"; things that happen on their own do not have to fit that definition. In most circumstances, Bob's father is obviously unlikely to consider himself better off dead than alive. This fallacy is sometimes combined with Retrospective Determinism, arguing that a given event was "just the way things are" and hence should not be regarded as negative. "It's nature's way." The Natural Law Theory may look like this fallacy, but isn't. The nature it appeals to is the essence of something, not the wild and woolly outdoors (though its critics argue that it can't help but devolve into this still, e.g. what if something's nature isn't good?). Many fantasy stories explain Necromancy and the undead as being evil as they "go against nature". Never mind by that logic one could claim wielding swords is evil, as it's not like you grow swords in a garden. Compare All-Natural Snake Oil, which is when advertising uses an Appeal to Nature. Appeal to Inherent Nature is a subset of this fallacy where the claim is that, if something or someone is naturally predisposed to a certain act or state, then this must be accepted regardless of what it is. |

JonTron pokes fun at this when ripping on Gwyneth Paltrow's quotes and "natural cure" products which have been criticized as lacking scientific basis and outright labelled harmful and misleading by medical professionals, particularly her claim that "We're human beings and the sun is the sun — How can it be bad for you? I don't think anything that is natural can be bad for you." It cuts to Jon doing a Thousand-Yard Stare to Super Mario World music, sounds of people screaming, and a MASSIVE list of about 50 natural things that are dangerous, bad for you, or outright deadly scrolls by, ending with THE SUN. | |

Star Trek: Enterprise: In "Dear Doctor", Doctor Phlox argues against curing a disease affecting the Valakians on grounds that the existence of the Valakian species is holding back the evolution of the Menk species on the same planet. He argues to Captain Archer that they should "let nature take its course". For icing on the cake, Archer's closing monologue in effect claims this incident as the origin of the Prime Directive. | |

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain does this with hamburgers. Miller is trying to make the best burger possible by using Code Talker as a taste tester, and since Code Talker is a man of Native American descent who talks like a Magical Native American, Miller assumes the burger has to be as natural as possible. This trope eventually gets inverted when Code Talker tells Miller that good food is all about the flavor, which is achieved through science instead of nature, so Miller takes the opposite approach and creates a hamburger called the Chemical-Burger. Even though the burger is so loaded with additives that it's turned into an unnatural color, Code Talker finds the burger to be perfect. | |

Eureka has an episode where everyone is becoming dumber, and the supposedly-a-genius farmer doesn't think the additives she's using are bad, because they are "organic"...In a town of super-geniuses, granted lacking in common sense sometimes, this seemed rather glaring in its stupidity. | |

Theresa & Allison: Allison says it's just nature when vampires kill humans for blood, asking Theresa (who's not comfortable with this) whether she'd blame a lion who killed a lamb. Theresa objects that they aren't lions, but Allison says they aren't humans anymore either. However, it's shown blood from donations also works, and they don't have to kill humans. Many just don't care not to, and others clearly enjoy it. | |

The Traveler's Gate: Enosh wants to release the Incarnations to destroy the "unnatural" supremacy of Ragnarus, and bring everything back to the "natural order". They don't particularly care that millions will die when the Incarnations rampage, and even want to help them after they are freed. This isn't even the natural order. In truth, Incarnations are rare; usually whenever someone Incarnated, they would immediately return to their Territory and become a part of it. On the rare occasions when Incarnations would remain in the real world and rampage, Elysian Travelers would fight them. A conspiracy created eight Incarnations at the same time for an unknown purpose, resulting in an Elysian Traveler Incarnating to stop them, and then a Ragnarus Traveler Incarnating to stop her. It was a Ragnarus Traveler who saved the world by sealing all the Incarnations (except Elysia, who had returned to her Territory on her own) beneath the Hanging Trees. | |

Discworld: Pratchett has a lot of fun with this trope. King Verence and his wife Magrat fall prey to it on a regular basis, usually for the worse. Carpe Jugulum: King Verence is talked into drinking brose after being told "It's got herbs in", on the assumption it must be healthy. He spends most of the remainder of the book foaming at the mouth and randomly attacking inanimate objects. This, however, turns out to be useful. It should be noted that brose is what the Nac mac Feegle, six-inch pictsies who can drink their weight in lamp oil with no ill effects, drink to get their spirits up before marching into battle. Witches Abroad: Teetotaller and lightweight Magrat drinks a third of a bottle of absinthe because she vaguely recognizes it as involving wormwood, after which point she, Granny Weatherwax, and Nanny Ogg start calling it "herbal wine". The popular drinks Scumble (made of "mostly apples") and Splot containing such vaguely defined ingredients as "tree bark" and "naturally occurring mineral salts". In another book, Ankh-Morpork's notorious CMOT Dibbler is making himself a killing off of a particularly desperate dandruff sufferer by selling herbal shampoo "now with more herbs!" One character notes, "throw a bunch of weeds in the pot and you've got herbs." The Fifth Elephant: When Acting-Captain Colon says he's opposed to "unnatural things" like Sonky's contraceptives, Lord Vetinari replies "You mean you eat your meat raw and sleep up a tree?" Going Postal: Vetinari takes a dig at the Appeal to Nature: "Freedom may be the natural state of mankind, but so is sitting in a tree eating your dinner while it's still wriggling." |

Mama Bear asks Papa Bear to buy some more, but he insists on gathering it the old-fashioned way, bringing along his son to search for honey from a wild comb. In the process they anger many animals, including the beehive defending the honey they want. At the end, Papa and son settle for buying honey from the store. | |

Carmilla: When Laura's father brings news of another peasant woman falling sick from the mysterious disease and tries to reassure Laura and Carmilla by asserting that even the disease must be within God's will, Carmilla in constrast puts forth her belief that the disease is natural, and that "all things in the heaven, in the earth, and under the earth act and live as Nature ordains". As it is strongly implied the disease of the peasant woman is caused by Carmilla feeding on her, Carmilla is transparently justifying her vampiric predation as a part of the natural order of things. | |

Vampire: The Masquerade: This is the central precept of the Path Of The Beast, a system of Blue-and-Orange Morality followed by some Gangrel. This philosophy postulates that things are good because they are natural, and bad because they are unnatural. Thus, killing to sustain yourself and looking after your hunting grounds are good, but engaging in politics or using tools other than vampiric powers in hunting is morally reprehensible. | |

A Bit of Fry and Laurie: Parodied in a sketch where a doctor is offering his patient cigarettes as a cure. "Oh, herbal cigarettes?" says the patient. "That's right, yes. The leaf originally comes from America — it's called tobacco" and "It's a perfectly natural leaf." Another Fry and Laurie sketch has a bedtime drink containing "nature's own barbiturates and heroin". |

South Park: Played for Laughs a few times: Firstly is when "Miss Information" shows up in South Park pushing her all-natural ingredients, nearly killing Kyle in the process when she claims his worsening condition is his body "getting over its addiction to unnatural chemicals" and that he is vomiting up "toxins". It's not until the discovery that her "Native American suppliers" are just Cheech & Chong she hired to play the part that the public turns on her and accepts that Kyle has a severe terminal illness that requires proper medical attention to cure. And then there's Tweek Coffee, with their "all-natural organic ingredients sourced from local suppliers". Yeah it's "true", but those ingredients are illicit drugs from criminals... |

Adam Ruins Everything: Discussed with regard to breastfeeding vs. baby formula. One of Emily's friends berates her for using formula to feed her baby (who wouldn't latch at the hospital), saying that formula is "baby poison," and also that breastfeeding is the best or only way to bond with baby. Emily's mother-in-law, Patti, with the help of a researcher, shows her that formula is not toxic (as long as you use clean water and sterile bottles), it saved the lives of many babies whose mothers couldn't breastfeed, and that there's no conclusive evidence that using formula will adversely affect the baby's IQ or well-being...or that breastfeeding makes a difference in that regard. She and Adam also explain that breastfeeding is not the only way to bond with baby, and that the "love hormone" (oxytocin) is released while doing plenty of other things than breastfeeding (even things we might consider vices). The researcher explains that the view of formula as "baby poison" goes back to The '70s, when Nestle was marketing formula in poor countries, where clean water was not available, which led to the formula being contaminated by the dirty water, and in turn, a spike in infant death from diseases and parasites. (Not helping matters was the fact that these impoverished mothers were diluting the formula to help it last longer, because it was expensive for them, which led to babies dying of malnutrition as well.) This led to conspiracy theories, and the belief that formula is unsafe because it's artificial. | |

Jade Empire is a pretty severe offender. Much of the setting's backstory revolves around a conflict between the Emperor and the Water Dragon, one of the setting's nature deities. The short version: the Water Dragon allowed (or perhaps even caused) a severe drought that nearly crippled the Empire and cost thousands of lives, and the Emperor captured, tortured, and maimed the Water Dragon to force her to make the drought stop. While the other characters never waste an opportunity to condemn the Emperor's actions, none of them ever do the same for the Water Dragon and automatically dismiss any suggestion that the Water Dragon's drought was anything but 100% justified, and this trope, along with Omniscient Morality License, is strongly implied to be the reason. Granted, the setting and culture are based on Chinese mythology, and the characters' unwillingness to question the morality of a goddess makes sense in context, but to a modern viewer, the Values Dissonance, while purposeful, can be pretty jarring. | |

TV Tropes: See All-Natural Snake Oil for a lot of examples of this. This is the underlying logic of The Social Darwinist and often the Evilutionary Biologist; there are various versions, typically some variant of: The strong deserve to rule over and / or destroy the weak, because it's nature's way. Mankind has perverted the course of nature, so society needs to be destroyed / someone needs to genetically engineer a killer something to prey on man / whatever. This might also be why people think cybernetics will eat people's souls. Frequently comes up in rants about why New Media Are Evil. |
