eye_of_the_storm Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) Pharmakeia φαρμακεια is the Greek word for pharmacy, which is the practice and making of medication and vitaminsIt also refers to any substance used to poison someone, to prevent or treat disease (or, for that matter, to cause it), or to gain control of someone's behavior.[1][unreliable source?] Pharmakeia and its related word forms pharmakeus, pharmakon, pharmakos and pharmakoi are the words from which we get the modern English words pharmacy, pharmaceutics, pharmaceutical, pharmacist, pharmacopia, pharmacology, pharmaceuticalist and pharmaceuticalism. The modern transliteration of pharmakeia is pharmacia. Pharmakeia and its related forms appear several times in the New Testament, including the Epistle to the Galatians and the Book of Revelation. It is frequently translated as "witchcraft" or "sorcery".[2] Magical pharmacia substances or potions often bind someone under a spell by evocation with and without uttered word formulas.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PharmakeiaSorceries/ Witchcraft (Pharmakeia)Sorcerers (pharmakeus)Pharmakeia... to gain control of someone's behavior! ^... need I say more?

safi Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) You can learn a lot of interesting things from etymology. On this subject of pharmacy... most people wouldn't need to swallow pills and suffer from side effects if they had a bit of self-control and took care of their health. The quote below by the dalai lama is quite good. Edited February 5, 2013 by safi 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
