you always want to bash larty G one because he is black & JW.

not because he's black, idiot, but because he's JW. i gotta say he hasn't been my favorite influence on prince! i don't like the fact that prince is turning his back to a lot of stuff he did in the past, because of his (stronger) beliefs. larry 'helped' with that, you can't say he didn't. so, yeah, i don't like him for that. but i also know that he's one hell of a bassplayer and a funky motherfu.. oops, am i allowed to say that.

peace.

Also isn't it rather closed minded of you to critcise Larry when you know nothing of his musical merit? That's like saying you don't want to hear The NPG or any other Prince collaboration as your only in it for the man solo and a capella, no?


and where have I criticized Larry?


You declared no interest in him despite having done no research. Semantics.


no, not semantics. criticizing someone and not having an interest is completely different. there are plenty of things in this world that are great that I have never experienced and have no desire to. one does not need to do research or seek out new things when they already have plenty of interests. I've heard the larry jahams that were inserted into the audio shows and they don't interest me. if they are not examples of his best work, too bad, I don't care. more than likely I will never be into larry, that does not mean I have criticized him. I do not mean to attack you in any way, but your continual responses to my posts have only exemplified your ignorance in these matters.

let's recap. you have claimed coincidence equals correlation, which is not true. you defended this point by saying that I criticized Larry, which again is not true. then further defended that mistake as a matter of semantics, which, again, is not the case. if I were you, I'd cut my losses and retreat from this matter.

Hahaha you are ignorant by definition. Ignorant of Larry Graham. You continue to pirouette and cartwheel your way through some vocal gymnastics and I'll focus on those able to tackle the issues at hand. Keep on editing those posts son... lol

I will gladly admit to being ignorant to such an unimportant aspect of life as larry graham than to be inflicted with the ignorance you have displayed throughout this exchange. and I assure you, this has not been anywhere near a vocal gymnastics on my part, merely a cracking of my verbal knuckles. I'm sorry to know that it has taken much more an effort on your part, but considering the intelligence and reasoning you have exibited I shouldn't surprised.

and if editing a post is the strength upon which you can defend your position, I hate to inform you on this, but your position is about strong as the civil defense of Guam.

[sigh]

I am not going to start a fight here. What I wrote was what I was told about Jehovah Witnesses. If it is wrong, then I apologize. But with what I have seen of JW's and heard from people that know JW's...I only knew that of what I wrote. Just a question...why does it matter when you dont even practice the religion? I mean you said you dont even care if you go to heaven and all that. This is a question,not an attack. Its not the person I dont agree with, its the religion.
confused


i'm a lover, not a fighter. just get cranky on occasion. yes, i'm the cranky JW on this org. wink

i do practice my religion. true i do not want to go to heaven - i want to live here on earth. this is a promise found throughout the bible, that "the righteous ones will possess the earth"... am not saying i am a righteous one; but am trying to live a christ-like life to the extent possible, be good to people and discuss the bible with everyone who is willing to do so...

it's not really a matter of recruitment. i'm studying the bible with a few people... but i think it's as much for myself (or maybe more) than for them... i review everything i've learned previously and renew my own faith by talking to them. some of them are thinking about becoming JWs and of course the choice is left entirely up to them... they'll tell me if and when they want to join, but whether or not they do i will still be their friend.

am i making any sense?

And while we're at it, MilesIsAlive, why don't you hop on here and tell me EVERYTHING you know about ME? I'm waiting. Shouldn't take long.

Is it an internet "foul" to reply to your own post?

Whatever...

I would LOVE to hear you address my DIRECT question to you.

When you get the time...

No. That was ME that wrote that.

You brought it up.

You posted it.

You throw stones.

You genralize.

You specificly indicted ME as a WHITE "so called" Prince fan...

You are a one note song.

You have a problem, obviously...

You are backpedaling.

Now, tell ME everything YOU KNOW about ME, the "white so called" Prince fan. I'm waiting, Professor...

Most white fans? Why must spirituality be a race issue? I'm one white fan who doesn't have problems with Larry. He keeps Prince thinking, learning, growing, and funking. As long as Prince keeps believing that Jesus is God manifest in Love, he can't go wrong no matter who his friends are.
