To put it another way sorcery is a way for a person to trade a 'favor' for a 'bit -o-magic' from a demon.
One man can chew the willow bark for the Salicin (the percursor of asprin) and another may do it to curry favor for some spirit or anti saint of fever and head aches... The act is the same, the determining factor is the heart and intention of the man doing the chewing.
So it's sorcery if you have a headache and take a couple of aspirin in the name of The Mighty Jagrafess of the Holy Hadrojassic Maxarodenfoe?
