I think Prince's changes had more to do with Witnesses not using the cross in worship than whether or not Jesus died on one. | |

raddahone said: Words are very difficult to describe the beauty of Jesus. Jesus probably doesn't see HimSelf as an idol because He is egoless and his entire consciousness spans cr8tion and that which is beyond cr8tion. Man idolizes Jesus when they think that blindly following Him will save them. Yes, we can read the words of Jesus, but we must also strive to be like Him in our everyday actions. And, make Jesus your Guru and Master, if you so choose.
Eye can't speak for Prince and say that what i interpret the Cross to be as my truth is his truth. Having stated this, people evolve or de-volve. If one is not going forward towards God then they are going backwards. One must put out the effort to know Jesus and that our Cross can be seen on a microcosmic and macrocosmic level. Each individual must (re)unite their consciousness with God consciously and, quite possibly, we must do this on a global level also. If Prince sees that evolving the Cross to the Christ is where he must go, so be it. And, if Prince chooses to play a few bars from the Cross/Christ in concert without words, so be it. That must b enlightment from the club....THE top JW Don't give up when the hours seem dark - on a personal level - and, a country and global level. Well, even a universal level for other cr8tion that we are unaware of. We are facing very complex times with the Wars that are being fought. Keep in mind that war is externally fought and also internally fought. The Bhagavad Gita is about an internal war...mayb the Book of Revelations is the same. The ego wants us to think that we are alone and that we can't know Jesus and/or be realized. It wants to stay in suffering to have a reason to suffer. To be free is our true home. Was Jesus crucified on a Cross? Does it really matter how he was murdered by mankind? Why didn't any of His devotees speak up? Why did they let the OneLove of their lives go down the way that it did? We need to see everyone else's Cross as our own and to help those that we can. This is our dharma. | |

I hated the way he changed it to The Christ. I think it was another Larry influence. Although i can understand why a JW wouldnt want to celebrate the object that Jesus (alegedly) died on. Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

Come to think of it, I do remember Prince saying that years ago(before Larry I believe) a friend asked him why would somebody wear a symbol of something so tragic or something along those lines. Maybe it was around the Lovesexy time? Anyways, Prince stopped wearing crosses a long time ago.Still,it doesn't take away from the message. | |

I hate religion with a passion, since it screws people up so much and they are so pushy with it. However, some beautiful music came out of gospel tradition, Prince's prettiness, meaning his music comes purely from gospel, Elvis also did some of his most gorgeous and moving music when he did gospel, it's truly special. As far as the cross, well it's not so much gospel as a rock song, the Christ was probably a word changed because of P's conversion to the JW's who believe that Jesus was not crucified on a cross but a pole and they also deny the godship of Jesus, so that may have something to do with it. Not that I give a damn, like I said, religion is garbage amd i'd tell prince that to his face. | |

sacredwarrior said: when and why did he change it?
The truth behind that question is that it was Always the christ, but for popular recording reasons it was changed at the time of recording for the album. News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

unfortunatly, Prince in the moring has all this crust over his eyes, and from playing loud music his ears have a hummmming sound so that came the morning prince wasn't even sure what time it was.  News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.

well yes and no. One thing missing from the song "The Cross" was a direct meaning to the statement. Quite like the missing trumpet sounding in the song "The Christ". News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
