According to the Bible, those who put their trust in the rudiments of the world (listed in the Periodic Table of the Elements) alone and reject spiritual reality are being spoiled by philosophy and vain deceit.

Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

Paul warns that embracing evolution can (and does) lead to atheism.

Romans 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

According to evolution, "Homo sapiens" means "wise man," and those who profess themselves to be Homo sapiens are professing themselves to be wise men.

Now for the witchcraft connection:

From the Online Etymology Dictionary for the word "wizard" ...
wizard (n.)
early 15c., "philosopher, sage," from Middle English wys "wise" (see wise (adj.)) + -ard. Compare Lithuanian zynyste "magic," zynys "sorcerer," zyne "witch," all from zinoti "to know." The ground sense is perhaps "to know the future." The meaning "one with magical power, one proficient in the occult sciences" did not emerge distinctly until c. 1550, the distinction between philosophy and magic being blurred in the Middle Ages. As a slang word meaning "excellent" it is recorded from 1922.

Notice I highlighted some key words here?

Science, which is the art of "knowing," can predict (or calculate) the future (solar & lunar eclipses, etc.).

And in my dealings with those who use the scientific method as their philosophy of life, I've yet to find one person who does not prefer to use the term "magic" over the term "miracle."

It's almost a meme with scientists.

Those of you who are hellbent on proclaiming science to be witchcraft and science to be anti-god and anti-bible yada yada yada....

How is it that you have no problems working on a computer?

Why is it you are not Amish?

Why is it that you have not rejected everything science has to offer and adopted a simpler more god-fearing life like the Amish?

What mental contortion allows you to have these views on science but yet enjoy all the benefits of science in your daily life?

I am genuinely curious.

God gifts us scientists.

(Notice I used "gift" as a verb here.)

Some people are just "natural born scientists," so to speak.

Their job is to do their part in fulfilling ...

John 10:10b ... I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

In other words, it's their job to make our lives easier.

But when they deny their calling and use science as a tool to sterilize every jot & tittle of the Bible, it's a different story.

Then it becomes witchcraft.

@dgiharris, to be clear, I do not believe science is witchcraft; science is very useful.
It can, however, be used in a malicious nature though (so can anything really).

Evolutionists can commend themselves as "Homo sapiens" all they want; but the Bible says otherwise.

2 Corinthians 10:12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

According to the Bible nothing AV. Doesn't it ever get tiring just making things up?

How about I quote the AMPC (whatever that is) instead?

Colossians 2:8 [AMPD] See to it that no one carries you off as spoil or makes you yourselves captive by his so-called philosophy and intellectualism and vain deceit (idle fancies and plain nonsense), following human tradition (men’s ideas of the material rather than the spiritual world), just crude notions following the rudimentary and elemental teachings of the universe and disregarding [the teachings of] Christ (the Messiah).

Better?

Using potions to cure and protect people exposed to diseases.
What about them?

I don't know what you're getting at here.

Draw two interlocking circles.

Label one circle SCIENCE and the other circle WITCHCRAFT.

Where the two circles overlap is where science and witchcraft operate.
