1Ti 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
1Ti 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
PHILARGUROS
2Ti 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
Luk 16:13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Luk 16:14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
Luk 16:15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

Do whatever you want with it. I still take my meds but I just try to know the behind the scene as well.
The many instances where Pharmaceuticals Companies have lied through their teeth and falsified data are only the tip of the iceberg. I don’t consider a doctor or a specialist to be a better person or even better informed we all are brainwashed into some form of greedy lies from birth.
And as I quoted previously
for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
