Quite the other way around...
That whose foundation is rooted in pharmakopia and alchemy are hardly the basis for finding God.
Think of this:
The tree of the knowledge of good and evil... Prior to Man's fall, when he walked with God in the cool of the evening... THEN he only had knowledge of the good.
The commandmant was a moral choice: Obey or disobey. Use knowledge to obey or disobey. The seeking of knowledge to obey or disobey. The use of newfound knowledge to obey or disobey. To everything there is a season.
Everything was created and is waiting to be found. People don't "create" anything. They use knowledge or seek knowledge to arrange information. Take it apart to see how it works.
It is the introduction of free agency. The right to choose. Obey and all things are given in its time. Ask the question right and it will be answered. The gaining of knowledge with experience and wisdom.
Disobey and your knowledge is gained without that wisdom and experience. Use of that knowledge without that wisdom and experience can lead to bad things. Evil exists. Good exists.


Using a match to light a fire in your fireplace is a good thing. Putting a can of gas in your car to drive to the store to buy more matches because you discovered you don't really know how to build a fire in your fireplace is a good thing. A match and can of gas in the hands of a kid to start a nine alarm fire? Then thou shalt surely die.
