“Priests who curse over money” Ping

I'm in the Frida Camp, myself

[Joseph Harrolds]

He cursed her with a hex? It never fails to astonish me that people still believe in magic in the 21st Century.

[Berlin_Freeper]

travelling to see his sister’s Border collie, Peppee, up to eight times a day for ten years.

THAT's not a curse?

Oh great, add Frida vs Agnetha to Mary Ann vs Ginger, Bailey vs Jennifer ... (note who I listed first each time). 99 vs Mrs. Peel is a real toughie.

[PowderMonkey]

Looks like she got over it, Father...

I'm afraid that I would probably need to take them both out to breakfast, lunch, dinner and cocktails several hundred times at minimum before I would be able to even approach such an important decision.  This process is all in motion; I'm waiting for a call-back to a message that I left in 1974  ;-)

Frida definitely had an interesting background, she was actually born in Norway, to a Norwegian mother and a German father who was in the Wehrmacht during WWII during the occupation of Norway....obviously, a mother who slept with the enemy wouldn’t be welcome in Norway after the war, so they moved to Sweden.

Agreed, and it astonishes me when people who purport to have devoted their lives to bringing others closer to God appear to have aligned themselves with a far darker force.  I wasn't aware that casting hexes was part of Christianity.

[dfwgator]

At least he didn’t turn her into a newt.

ABBA were a good band, and the ladies were (and still are) beautiful. Hope that line doesn’t get me a “boogity-boogity-boo curse” from the “Father”.

[Slings and Arrows]

Somebody tell the father that Justin Bieber owes him money.

[Greysard]

He was so furious he put a curse on Agnetha Faltskog who soon became a virtual recluse on her remote island.

His curse is so strong that I also have a desire to become a virtual recluse on my own remote island.

I wouldn't describe the casting of magic spells as aligning one's self with a "darker force", since there's no "force" there in the first place. It's simply an absurd superstition with no more basis in reality than the pixie dust.

THAT's not a curse? 

If it's not, then perhaps feeding a cancer-stricken dog whisky and poitin is.

The devoted 76-year-old cleric nursed the pet with Whiskey and poitin as it struggled with arthritis, viruses and cancer.

From the Disney animated film, "Tangled", starting at the 3:05 mark:

I have dreams, like you -- no, really!
Just much less touchy-feely
They mainly happen somewhere warm and sunny
On an island that I own
Tanned and rested and alone
Surrounded by enormous piles of money

[Larry Lucido]

He newt too much to do that.

[Stoat]

At least he didn’t turn her into a newt.

 

He'd have been working at a severe disadvantage....you can't cause a 'fail' when you're working with so much 'win'   ;-)
