Say it ain't so. I hope George was telling a joke.

Fuck me...

Well, George did make a joke about how the Devil was actually a breaded jalepeno or something, and how he had to use a lot of baby wipes, but he stated the Prince part as a fact.

George is smart JWs are forver trying to "convert" people and they're really aggressive about it.I would have declined Prince's offer,too.

Very sad story.

Because he is a religious nutcase.

Yup. You can see the clip on the CBS website, The Talk, "George Lopez: Finding Religion From Prince."

Surprising that you guys are surprised.

A lot of songs on all his albums are about God.

Well it is their thing to try and brainwash as many people as possible isn't it. Celebs got those big pockets after all, so it makes sense to go after them.

I'm brainwashing my hubbie about Prince's music, so it doesn't seem so strange to me

The Bible is interesting, it influenced wastern culture a lot one way or another, so religious proselitism apart, it could be an interesting thing to study. I'm not a JW, nor exceptionally religious, but it doesn't surprise or scare me that someone study the Bible and wants to share his toughts on it.

I would've declined too. I love Prince and his music, but I don't want to be lectured on religion by anyone. I also don't want to hear his JW take on the bible either.

I'm not surprised. I just had some hope that he might become a little wiser with age. But obviously not.

Superfan1984 said:

Yeah, I don't see it as "sad"..... It just means he is still very much a JW. Recently there was a thread asking if he still was a JW or still was as strong in his faith and apparently he is. I just thought it was interesting. Wonder how many celebrites he's had a bible study with? Or who have turned him down for one?

Well, that wasn't recently so that really doesn't answer the question if he is still active or not...

It is interesting on how many celebs accepted bible studies and who are

taken them seriously.

Some inspiration for Prince...

Not to be adversarial, but could you define brainwashing for me? I mean is anyone with a certain or particular ideological position brainwashed? So, is a republican, or a democrat, or a Marxist, or a communist, or a capitalist, or an existentialist, or a Jew (which is a religious marker not an ethnic marker), or an atheist or a naturalist brainwashed? It seems that on this site brainwashed is reserved just for people who embrace an orthodox religion, and I'm wondering how that makes them any different than other people who have an ideology that governs their lives, especially since I get mail, phone calls, and other propaganda from people trying to convert me to their political, scientific, and economic ideologies all the time.

Loony religious cult brainwashing - Official definition.

I would love to witness Prince and Tom Cruise trying to convince eachother of the right path to follow.

If Prince decided on doing Bible study Spreecasts...would u b interested? Would u participate?

Absolutely not. I'm sure many people would though. I'm an atheist, so this sort of thing doesn't interest me in the least.
