But be careful. Understanding how it works only goes so far. If you're a normal human, your mind is hard wired so that words are more than just fragments of code and a skilled practitioner can find the chinks in your armor. If you think you can't be cursed, that would make them just that much more dangerous. But hopefully, you'll never be in that situation. If you are, another stong Christian and good spiritual and mental health can help you out (this is one situation where two mind are better than one).
But, also, remember that there is the "real thing". If you ever have to deal with magic workers, they have tricks (pseudomagic - discrete technology) and the demonic world that they can use in addition to suggestion.
What I'm saying is that, if you ever run into problems with the "paranormal" (note the quotes), make sure you have what you need for a strong defense. Don't assume that you're prepared to deal with it unless you actually are.
