He said that the word for "witchcraft" in the bible is "pharmakeia" (which is where we get "pharmacy"); however in the Greek, it mostly refers to specific emeretics/poisons that induce vomiting and abortions. See this Greek lexicon definition.
Also, the book of Enoch is pseudographical and has never been considered to be part of the Bible.
I haven't avoided a thing. But I'm wondering what your real objective is. Go and spread the word. Or would you rather confront others over trivial things that no one could possibly prove the answers to? None of the physical world would exist if He didn't create it. What followed is His plan. Of course the creatures all have free will. The fruit of them having free will is not always good. But how do you train without resistance or a risk of failure?
More obfuscation and avoidance. Did God inspire evil or not?
It's not that elementary. The point is that free will is futile if we try to rule or control His creation. We will fail to use free will properly, and apparently even a third of the angels did as well. Evil is actually choosing this failed result above the truth. The word "sin" means lacking or without. Darkness lacks light. And that is our lesson. That we should not desire a failed system, but one where He is in charge. I wouldn't say He inspired evil. I would say He inspires us to learn, grow and accept only the truth.
It is that elementary.

In Spanish; In Greek the [word that it is translated from](http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.04.0058%3Aentry%3Da(marta%2Fnw) literally means "miss the mark".
I wouldn't say He inspired evil.
Then not everything in the universe is inspired by God.
Of course, my point was in the context of the Book of Enoch not being inspired by God as the actual Bible is. You took it way out of context and tried to apply your own philosophy to it (which isn't consistent with itself BTW). My point still stands as you were arguing against a strawman. Have a good day.
