Rico, this has less to do with criticizing you than it is about helping relieve you of your ignorant state.

Have a look...

http://www.fda.gov/cder/regulatory/applications/

It is more than just whipping up concoctions and writing scripts.

Carp, the word means what it means and there is no denying the connection between pharmakeia and whipping up concoctions to treat illness. Just because it's done in a laboratory with chemicals doesn't change the fact that it's still the same thing.

You can't be so stubborn there are MANY words that have the same root but mean entirely different things. Cognates even further illustrate this point... just because the Bible uses a word with the same root doesn't mean there is any connection with a modern word of a completely different meaning.

The fact that it was translated as something different expresses the difference in translation. This is why words have multiple meanings where some of the meanings are entirely unrelated and I fail to see a connection at all with idol worship and witchcraft to pharmacology.
