Have a look...

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.

Part 1 and Part 2 of your post do not belong together.

Why? There was no cursing and blessing coming from the same....

Why are you judging me or my intent?

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone my sister, when you can say that people have never put you to anger then come tell me what I have done wrong, until then sit back and get a bag of popcorn or stick to the Bible.

"Be angry and sin not."

I don't think that calling names and insulting others reflects Christian character. And telling me to "sit down and shut up" doesn't work very well.

Consider your posts reported.
