When asked about his perspective on social issues--gay marriage, abortion--Prince tapped his Bible and said, "God came to earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever, and he just cleared it all out. He was, like, 'Enough.' "


Oh yeah. TOTALLY misquoted. Well, that clears THAT up, doesn't it?
(Computer says NO...)
Prince is a Certified ass wipe Loser.

I'm a big fan -- hence the Prince-related handle -- but the man lost his damned mind, as well as his ability to write a decent song, around the time he became a Jehovah's Witness.

I have no trouble believing that he is a bigot. Doubt he used the exact words in the article, because they just don't sound like him, but don't doubt that the reporter got the jist of it. The man is genderqueer and has never really known how to cope with that. Add that to the religion bit, and. . . gross.

His music was never good, he was never interesting. His cultural relevance is the same as Britney Spears or Jessica Simpson... Just a marketing gimmick from the start.

Is it any wonder that an idiot says idiotic things? I'm not surprised. He's been saying them since the beginning.

Anyhow, why don't Christians ever study the Bible? A more accurate interpretation of the lore of the city of Sodom never stressed homosexuality as an important element of the town's destruction, but rather the city's inhabitance being self serving, xenophobic, and hostile to the hungry and poor, and to strangers - even hostile to those that are kind to outsiders. Prince should really look into it.

Remember 'Sister' (from Dirty Mind)?!!

She showed me where it's supposed 2 go
A blowjob doesn't mean blow
Incest is everything it's said 2 be!

I'm with you, David @33. I might just listen to this stuff LOUDER from now on.
