I had to kill an ant and feel guilty. But that incident amounts to a
curse...

(I quote)

Early in the morning, as he was on his way back to the city, he was
hungry. Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found
nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, "May you never bear
fruit again!" Immediately the tree withered.

When the disciples saw this, they were amazed. "How did the fig tree
wither so quickly?" they asked.

Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not
doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you
can say to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it
will be done. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in
prayer."

***

The Koran though makes more sense about the mountain not coming to
you, then you go to the mountain.

Jesus was a magician. Buddha was a serious man who never claimed to be
god by doing sleight of hand.
