Prince & Jehovahs & Gays & Canada

So if JW's are against GAYS why is Prince advocating their rights in USOD?

Will he be leaving Toronto in protest now that it's legal?

Huh
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Whether or not Prince supports or opposes homosexuality per se, is not clear from the song. Rather, he seems to be saying that lines drawn on grounds of colour, sexuality, religion or geography should not be used as basis for people fighting each other.

Well, first i have 2 admit i'm still skeptical about Prince officially, really being a JW : has he officially announced it himself? Couldn't it b that he's a supporter of 'em via Larry, without actually being one ? U can b close 2 a religious movement & support it without actually being part of it.

Anyway, i think an intelligent JW would actually b sad 4 an homosexuel, not angry after him/her, sinc, after all, it's the homosexual's soul that is in peril.

& the song is about ceasing the "tribal" divergences that lead 2 war & intolerance. U can disapprove one's way of life or cultural points of view, but still accept his/her right 2 live in the same country with the same rights as u. What Prince is basically saying is : we r all in the same boat, so let's stop seing what separates us & instead let's try 2 c what r our common interests.

Cricky.

Prince is a neo-Satanist.

When praises the almighty Jehova--what he's really saying is the almight JaHoHVuh (that is the younger brother of Satan).

As for Gays, he's talking about Geys, which are the demons that carry out JaHohVuh's deeds.

This isn't commonly known, but I just thought I'd settle all the wierd rumors. shrug

Huh?!?! The homosexual's soul is no more in peril than the heterosexual's soul. Check the facts.

Well, i'm not a JW so i don't think such a thing. But from the few JW i met, i guess that a JW wouls think that any non-JW behaving soul is in peril, which would include homosexuuals, i guess.

Didnt Prince condemn safe sex (like birth control shit) in one of his songs? I think it was either "Silicon" or "Daisy Chain".

I've always wondered what Prince's view on homosexuality is. I've gotten some mixed answers through his music and interviews. This one seems to make the most sense

Prince Condeming safe sex:

Props N Punds: Love God and never will your life will be lost
Listen 2 the words that will save every one
Safe sex campaign taught about a gun
With CON as the prefix, suffix be the DOM
Look at 'em both and tell me something
What's in the Trojan Horse lubrication?
Nothing goes in my woman 'cept the Son
Yesterday is dead...tomorrow hasnt arrived yet....i have just ONE day...
...And i'm gonna be groovy in it!
