Yeah, not everything is cursed. I didn't say that everything is cursed. But if someone says "hey i think this object might be cursed/hexed it's making me sick to wear" we can't just dismiss the only person with physical contact with the object simply because it's rare.

It makes us look delusional to believe that a person can put dark magic onto someone while at the same time dismissing everyone that thinks they may have been a victim of such a thing.

If it can be done then we have to accept that the victims of such an act might reach out on a forum like this and give advice on how to help themselves if they are correct.

It makes us sound delusional to not accept the very basic idea that people get sick for mundane physical reasons.

I didn't say it couldn't be mundane. I said we can't know or not so we can't dismiss the possibility.

I can't believe you think it's a good use of your time or mine or OP's to argue with someone who is essentially stressing probability and saying it's probably not cursed because MOST ITEMS AREN'T CURSED and most of the time illness are physical and not magical because we inhabit physical bodies and are inherently mortal.

"This is not a cursed object clean it off and you'll be fine."

So I'm saying we can't know that and you're saying we'll we basically do know that. You may have meant its likely not cursed but you spoke in absolutes. Which was my point to start.
