XxAxX said: i don't know AzureStar. i'm still thinking about it. on the one hand i feel connected to prince because i grew up here in minneapolis and always admired him. he used the symbol design i used to doodle when i was a kid, he uses MY chord progressions in a lot of his songs, and i admire his talent, personality and wit. he's always kind of been my hero and his music has helped me a lot over the years.
however, (and believe me i know i'm an utter ass for my vindictive attacks on larry and tina graham), i don't like what seems to have happened at the park. i had a friend who worked there who quit. mind you, i don't know the entire story but from what i've been able to gather the JW religion and those who promulgate it have devoured some of the freedom of thought which used to exist at the park. and to me paisley park used to be ABOUT freedom and unity despite differences. now, it seems that an 'either you're with us, or you're against us' mentality prevails at the park. so, i don't think i'll attend next year's celebration, or else i'll attend only a couple of nights if that's possible. as far as my membership, i do want to support prince's freedom fight against the corporate world, but i don't want to inadvertently support the JW cause. i'd rather donate the money to something i believe in. and, i don't wish to be nasty or judgemental about another person's religion, but the teachings of the JWs truly contradict what i hold to be true and what i've learned through personal experience. so, i really don't know right now I really understand what you're saying. It really seems like a lot of people are feeling the same way as you, as of late. Personally, if I were to join the club, which I will do next year, I'm not really concerned where the money goes, because I'm not donating it to anything. He can do what he likes with the money, because after I give it to him, it's his to do with what he wants. lol. Since I wasn't at the celebration or any concerts, I really don't have any opinion of Prince, Larry, or the PP staff. I dig the music of Larry and Prince, and that's pretty much the extent of it. I admire them for what they've accomplished in this life. With you personally having experiences in this situation, I can understand your take on things. You've got to be true to you and how you feel. and uh... grin. shin. | |

I'm sure it takes both of your tiny brains to come up with the bullshit you type. And you can stop pming me in the chat any day now. You start crap, and I'm tired of it. Get a life yourself, my little friend. You know what, oceana, I couldn't care less about your retarded offspring. Err, not to mention the fact, if I were one of those offspring, I'd kill myself.

And yet, oceana had this to say about BattierBeMyDaddy just a few days ago on the thread: 'Sexiest on DA Org'... "The (sexiest) men? Way to many to mention... The woman...BATTIERBEMYDADDY, just go take a look at her. She is the bomb! I think she could catch Prince eye in a second! And she was serious... I think the manic phase of the bi-polar disorder is kicking in again, along with the voices and hallucinations. Which is why she's back on the threads again--once second she loves ya, then insults you. Go back to the chat room oceana. | |

i do admire the work larry and prince have done too. i know i'm being a bit childish, probably because i feel my hero has moved so far away from me, mentally. but, i do respect and defend his right to believe what he chooses.
you raise a good pojnt about the money being his after i purchase a membership. i should relax about that, eh? none of my freakin business what he does with the $$ as long as he provides the grooves. . . shin? splint! | |

And you also know there are many people here who will crucify you if you come back here with your shit.

Disagree with him as I may, I actually think it would be sad if he were to compromise his beliefs or curb his tongue because he thought it would cost him his fanbase.
Wonderfully stated and agreed! My only concern is that he isn't getting any kind of diverse spiritual input. I have found as a Christian that my non-Christian friends have taught me MORE about Christianity and myself than my Christian ones. Certainly, those who share my beliefs are there to support me and offer me some guidance, but if Prince really wants to follow Jesus, he should be hanging out with the "tax collectors, prostitutes and lepers" as he did. hey moonbeam... i'd venture to say tho that there are probably a great many tax collector/prostitute/leper types hanging around prince... i don't think jesus was looking for guidance from them, tho. he merely treated them decently, like human beings, unlike the pharisees and other jewish religious leaders who lorded it over the common people and referred to them literally as dirt. jesus offered friendship and spiritual guidance. these people wanted to change their lives for the better & jesus was willing to help them. no christians can be as good as jesus but still we can help people if we go about it in a non self-righteous way (or we'll end up like those pharisees)... i think prince is doing all right in this regard. he certainly is provoking discussion. | |

BattierBeMyDaddy said: Woah...Batty woman or "girl" looks a lot older than 16! I agree with Oceana and Vagina on this one; Batty needs to get a life and stop polluting the board with crap. Yes I look ANCIENT! But I assure you my little peon, I'm 16. Anyone who agrees with a Vagina and a dumbass has no room to talk - and I suppose YOU can do sooo much better posting, you've posted a heaping 24 times, in which I'm sure there has been nothing interesting. Thank you, have a lovely day. Maybe I only posted 24 times because my life revolves around something other than this. Even posting this is a waste of time.This org is saturated with idiots like you. Sorry, I don't know you, I'm probably being too extreme, but I'm sick of people constantly flaming Prince just because they feel like complaining and have nothing substantial to say. | |

[This message was edited Thu Jul 11 13:27:08 PDT 2002 by Universaluv] Again... very good point, saying what I have thought myself. Imagine this may be reality. Prince struggles to feel content in his life for years. He is unable to put out in his music his total ideas on God etc, for fear of not being accepted. Then, he does find an inner sanctuary, feels content, has courage to share a lot of himself. And hardly any fucker can just have the decency, whether they agree with him or not, to respect his views, when he has given a lot of us, countless hours of enjoyable listening. Imagine if that is the case. Couldn't agree more if you paid me to... Um...you're not paying for people to agree with ya, are you??... Alas, no Wellbeyond, no 'bucks' involved. None of the green variety, anyway | |

oceana said: GOOD! So get to work and start helping batty instead of insulting me.. How many peeps had something to say to her and you come after me... I dare see you in chat,you do not know how to chat only accuse and insult! You must have gotten ur degree where theChronic got his, and who even know's if you have one.. I use to work at health and wellness for military years ago doing the same thing you did as far as it goes to being in the medical field and I did not need no masters degree.
You had the hugest crush on thechronic in the beginning, oceana, remember? You used to follow him around the Org and post flirty things to him right after each of his posts. You copied the words and phrases he used when you posted (telling people to 'man up') and defended the stupid things he said all the time. You thought he was sooo funny--and all of this is a matter of record, you typed it and it's in the archives here. I could go get it and post it for everyone if you'd like! You sent him a picture of yourself, hoping to impress him, and told him all about your so-called life. You only started freaking out on him when he didn't respond to you the way you wanted him to. He was trying to be polite and just ignore you, so you wouldn't feel bad. So don't talk to me about thechronic--he's your hangup, not mine, and has been gone from here for weeks. Yet you still bring him up, you're still hanging on, I see! I know there is absolutely no way you did anything even remotely close to the type of work I do. For one thing, you have no idea what I do, I've never said, other than it's medical social work. And assuming you're telling the truth (which is something never to assume with you), it was probably 20 years ago that you did it, you ancient Yoda, you! Thirdly, you were probably only a committed, institutionalized patient pretending to be a professional! If you know what's good for you oceana, you'll stick to the chatroom. Don't come back here. | |

Earlier on this thread I said that I was getting tired of all the JW talk coming from Prince. But then I thought about that and realized; I'm not tired of this coming from Prince because it hasn't happened that much. What I'm tired of is coming to the org and everyone arguing about one little statement he might've said in a concert. The reason we're all sick of it, is because we feel the need to discuss it all the time because a couple of people want us to feel offended about it like they do. | |
