"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Cursing someone is telling them they're not funny. They believe it and are 'cursed'

In Turkish there are a few, and they are called "beddua", or "bad prayers", which are the opposite of blessings. God sometimes does, and sometimes does not accept these, so the belief goes, if they are rightfully said(for example to someone who has just gravely wronged you and got away with it) or if you just said it to be mean, and with an unrightful anger and hate, they come straight back at those who have said it. Though there is also the belief that the Gypsies have been given the power to curse people, by God, in accordance with their own curse, of course, which was also given by God, to them.

I had a good friend back when I was a teenager that told me a weird story about gypsies. His family moved to the US from Mexico when he was 5 years old. Back when his parents lived down in Mexico one time a group of gypsies came by. They asked his dad for money and he told them he didn't have any. They responded that he was lying and told him where in his house he was hiding some money and exactly how much was there. They then laid a curse on his wife in retaliation. After that day she lost the use of her legs. She would have to drag herself around on the floor by her arms. Also every time her husband would go near her she would get extremely painful headaches. These things eventually wore off but they took years to do so. Freaking weird, eh?
