Which Christians say that? The only one I've ever heard sy that is some dopey woman on Oprah who claimed to have had a near death experience in the early 50s, before the fad took hold.

I'm Christian...(but, I don't follow the Pope)
and I do not say that God doesn't judge this world.
Cuz he already has, the execution of this; is coming.
And I certainly do not say that nations or otherwise are cursed.
And I certainly do not assign to God that which either mankind has caused,nature or the original serpent.
Thank You.

You will be judged by God's standards of righteousness when you die.
The Bible says that any nation that does not stand with Israel will be cursed. The evidence...all the surrounding Arab countries bordering Israel.

We believe that He judges this world, and that He is the only completely fair and righteous judge here. All others are mortal and capable of mistakes.
Everyone who is judged by Him after this life will admit that His judgments are completely fair and correct, even if they don't especially like what happens to him or her.

#1 - Most people would say somethings cursed, just because it's a saying.
#2 - Curses don't necessarily come from God.

They don't.
Individual people may (and individuals can think what they want), but it is not Catholoc doctrine to accuse people or nations of being "cursed," nor am I aware that it is any sort of stance of any Christian religion

I am a Christian and I have never said that.

God can do whatever he wants. But he will not do what he has not promised to.

Religious people of any strain never make much sense.
