===What is a curse?===

A brief examination of blessings and curses in the Bible finds that they are effective, and that they can impact the target person and his progeny for several generations. A prominent example is the curse on Ham, coupled with the blessings on Shem and Japheth in Genesis 9, which are understood to impact their role and lot for the rest of human history; Ham's descendants were Canaan, a target for annihilation by God's command. A curse on one's own parents is effectively a curse on one's own self and all of one's own children. It's a frightening expression of self-destruction.
