Prince a modern day Prophet?

One of a band of ecstatic visionaries claiming divine inspiration and, according to popular belief, possessing magical powers. Prince always the underdog? always the black sheep? A martyr? Always misunderstood? A Prophet who is crucified...metaphorically speaking?

No, he's simply a very talented funky musician with an interesting take on things. Don't delude yourself.

I am posing a question. A Prophet is a real person, Jesus was a prophet, Moses was a Prophet. Is Prince a Prophet? simple question.

That's why Toejam answered - he recognised it as a simple question, so he started his response with the simple answer: no.

I think you're onto something here. Moses parted the Red Sea. Prince parted the red v (assuming Sheena Easton is a natural redhead).
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I think Prince is a Prophet in the sense that he sees the way humanity needs to go and what we need to cling to. Without dedication to God many will live stray ways and could be lost in the times we face ahead. Prince is aware of the path that leads all to Freedom and Love. Knowing God is our strength and protection, he makes these points with the music he plays.

Another modern day prophet that I'm aware of is Edgar Cayce. His love was directed by God's love and to date his prophecies have the highest rate of accuracy for recent times. On the news just over a month ago, aerial pictures of the Caribbean lead those reporting to believe that Atlantis is rising. Cayce's prediction that earthquakes would follow this discovery are already coming true storm Strange weather lightning

Edgar Cayce's story "There is a River" is very inspiring. David Wilcock is supposedly the reincarnation of Edgar Cayce and he has lots of interesting things to say.

What are you smoking? Magical powers? What magical powers?

Besides, all he does nowadays is sing about how great he is. Aren't prophets supposed to talk about other people once in a while?

Well it's so obvious that he is. I mean, he rides a Pegasus in the nude. And that beats the shit out of wandering through the desert like a jackass for a few centuries (Moses, I am looking at you).



So now that we all know Prince is a Prophet, what does that make Tony M?
It's almost like there is an "event horizon" for stupidity - once you fall below that line, you're too stupid to know you're stupid.
