I can only think of it calling him an evangelist. He recounted the apostles acts. He was no doubt an apostle... like I said he was not one of the twelve but he was an apostle.

You are arguing that we are off topic but you apparently don't know what either does.
When you can have an intelligent conversation, then talk to me, otherwise you don't need to say anything to me at all.

BTW, you have proven that you can't even read what I wrote, but I guess it is because you are ranting and raving the whole time.

I am talking about what Galatians 5:20 calls pharmacists and what it says about medication. This verse of scripture doesn't say anything about doctors.

Listen you are arguing about my profession, I think I know what is going on here...

I can read perfectly fine, you are trying to say that pharmacology, or the practice thereof, is so different from medicine that doctors are not included in what you are discussing, this is wrong.

You don't know what a pharmacist does and you apparently don't know what a doctor does.

I don't don't know how you can say I am not arguing intelligently I am asking you to study up on what you are talking about before you go spouting reams on nonsense like you have this entire thread.

It doesn't say anything about medication either...

Simple. Let's just call our pharmacists 'doctors' since they've earned their doctor of pharmacy degree and that will take care of it.

Gus, he is trying to keep the conversation focused on pharmacists. You guys keep throwing doctors into the mix and he is pointing out this scripture doesn't mention doctors.

Our pharmacists are a completely different profession than what he's referring to. Just because the root of the word may be the same the function is different.

Ok, I understand but I am trying to point out, that you cant separate the two like that. They both practice medicine, you can't say pharmacists are evil and doctors are not.

The point is I don't believe either are mentioned in the scripture and there really isn't evidence to prove either side. I am just defending the cause of medicine and trying to impress him to read up on what either do, because they do parallel jobs, not jobs that meet up for one cause, medicine is practiced through the Socratic method by both pharmacists and doctors. Pharmacists don't simply mix a bunch of junk and doctors don't simply prescribe junk.

Maybe that's what it has developed into, Gus, but that doesn't change where it came from. Now, either that scripture has relevance for us today or we can use our permanent markers and blot it out. He's trying to explore the relevance it has for us today. You guys are trying to deny there's even a connection.
