Sorry to so this to you. But I look in the dictionary . . . go figure.
I will give you my rendition first, maybe you don't want to read all that below this! lol
Natural means that it happens spontaneously. Examples: A natural rock formation. A natural ejaculation. Etc.
What I won't do is commit our current sin nature as being spontaneous without the act that occured way back when. It's not something that I would ascribe to. There had to be an origin to it, God allowing us to be corruptable, but not corrupted until then. ( To keep it in 'Religious' context) .

Natural: anything that follows a normal order according to its design and purpose.
example: an egg laid by a chicken that has been fertilized by a male rooster produces a chick of the same species. This is considered a "natural" order in the reproduction of chickens. just an example. there are many other examples of "Natural"

Sorry, but please define in what context you are referring to the use of the word "natural". It has so many uses in our society today that it has almost become meaningless.
I saw a sign in Houston that advertises "Natural Plastic Surgery"...
So, if you could narrow the scope of your question, it would be helpful.
