This isn't really a bug with Holy magic, but it's the most fitting place to post this. Cursed Gems are all buggy:

1) You shouldn't be able to give them to other people. If you can't put them away.. how can you give them away?

2) Thieves most certainly should not be able to slip them to other people for the same reason.

3) Tingle, Mental Blast, and other such item dropping spells should not make you drop cursed gems. If you are picking a curse box, and it is on the ground and you blow the trap, the box suddenly jumps to your hands. Its obvious that somehow it is 'stuck' to you. Being knocked out shouldn't make you drop them.

>>Being knocked out shouldn't make you drop them.

Aww, yer no fun!

Seriously though, it really defeats the purpose of a spell which has all but two uses that I know of (both traps, btw) when about five other non-Cleric spells do exactly the same thing, but through mechanics not intended to do so.

Please change these, I agree

What if the curse on the items effects the mind forcing one to grip an item? If they go unconcious or hands go numb how are they to grip the item?

In this case it's more a matter of the item gripping you.
