I don’t think people are criticizing you for your choice to purchase organic foods. People asre just pointing out that there is nothing inherently better about “organic foods”.

Did you know that there is no standard for determining what is “organic” so that the foods you buy may not realy be any different than non-organic foods.

The "standards" you refer to are decided by the USDA. Allow me to be skeptic regarding their decision since they are by far not prepared to deal with a major food contamination or outbreaks.

I go solely by the standards I grew up with, from my grandparents' farm. It suffices for me to make my own decision on what I should feed my family.
