Like I said, I don't know why the translators chose witchcraft as how they translated that word or how it got lumped in with all them other evils, but there's no sense in trying to deny it means what it means.
and I am saying yes you can...

This is like trying to explain icing in Hockey to my wife.

There is a connection, however. Today we try to synthesize cures that are found in nature, but we are still concocting potions to make medicine. The only difference is that it is now done in a laboratory.
ooops, sorry, THIS is one of the dumbest things I have ever read...sorry for the knee jerk reaction a minute ago.

Everything I write is dumb to you, Carp. Why should this be any different? I didn't write the Bible, so go tell the person who wrote it how dumb it was to include "pharmacy" in his list.

Well, not everything. I am sure somewhere in your history you wrote, "Chocolate tastes good." Thats not dumb.

Your line of reasoning here is on the level of caveman ignorance Rico.

Hogwash. Things come from where they come from Ferd, whether we like it or not.

Hey Carpenter cavemen got us to where we are today so don't take too much away from that logic.

Again, what's the point in discussing this with you, Carp? Anything I say is going to be dumb because you are so much smarter than I am. I don't have the time or the patience for it today.
