I thought the name of this thread was...let's stop being negative
I am replying 2 all of the negative people who posted here Wow, I have been a fan of Prince's music 4 25 years and I have 2 say that I have never heard such crap about one person that u don't even know! whether any of this "gossip" is true or not, it is hard enough defending prince music to the average Joe, then u have 2 come along and ruin it 4 the rest of us, by spreading crap about him, not 2 mention giving the average Joe more ammo to not give his music a chance. This is a Prince Fan Site, right! If u don't like his music or can't be positive about him, what the hell r u doing here? I know these r trying times but we will get through it, after all he's nothing without us But u r attacking his personal life, r u in it? Y do u feel the need 2 dis people? Who appointed u judge and jury? Is that what gets u off? Glad not 2 be ur friend U r seriously ruining it 4 the rest of us, not 2 mention the new fans on this site that don't need 2 read bad about prince no one does, who cares what they do in their private lives he's a musical genius and that's all I want 2 know U r taking away the great experience of discovering all of his music, and giving Prince a black eye, 4 what, in the end no new fans, would that make u happy? Sometimes I am ashamed of u guys, and the replies that u give 2 genuine people such as Bellanoche, and other good people out here, and the name calling is so juvenile, grow up, and stop trying 2 corrupt the rest of us with that filth because we're not interested! I mean just go back to when u first discovered Prince's music and how great u thought he was... Please let them have their experience and go 2 church and pray 4 forgiveness and no I am not bringing religion in it, I'm just bringing it in 4 u! find or make a "i hate prince" site, u r not welcome here anymore... Let me show u the door! signed...looking out 4 the good people, we deserve respect! As long as we keep our luv strong we'll never shed no tears | |

mentalist said: I agree, and seriously.....do we need to actually have to like him as a person to appreciate his excellence as a musician and a performer.
Regardless of his personal beliefs or how he conducts himself or his life, it will never take away the fact that there is no other person on this planet that makes me feel what what I do when I listen to his music, watch his videos and see him perform..... And so in return for this in appreciation I will make allowances and forgive him for his crazy actions and leave the man to his own devices to do whatever makes him happy!!!! 0+> here here! well said and I soooo agree As long as we keep our luv strong we'll never shed no tears | |

I have read several opinions on this subject of Prince either being a bad guy,or the good guy in some opinions. The truth of the matter is he is human like the rest of us, he makes mistakes like any one of us in here. My question is who gives any of us the right to questions his actions? Right or wrong. Judgement belongs to God not to us. I know ALL of us in this chat are guilty of making mistakes. It was said by Jesus himself "Anyone who has no sin can throw the first stone" as stated in the bible, my point is, we are all sinners so, none of us have the right to throw stones,in this case (judgements),at others.
John 8:1-12 A Woman Caught in Adultery Jesus returned to the Mount of Olives, 2 but early the next morning he was back again at the Temple. A crowd soon gathered, and he sat down and taught them. 3 As he was speaking, the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They put her in front of the crowd.4 Teacher,they said to Jesus, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?6 They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. 7 They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone! | |

Sooooo on that basis I should let someone infringe my civil liberties? I think not | |

My being into Prince for such a short time might not mean much in this discussion. But deep down, I believe Prince is a good person. After all, deep down is where his music comes from. It shows his beautiful soul.
Him being a private person makes it difficult to know anything about him aside from the music. And when he does show his face, he comes off as sometimes abrasive and arrogant. He might not show it, but I think he is a good person. had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |

The way it reads, that is exactly what you are suggesting The theme of your comment seems to be we have no right to judge others So prince can do what he likes, trample all over other peoples human rights and civil liberties and we can't say thats wrong? About your logic of judgement alone belongs to god, where does that leave the court system and the judiciary, the very basic institutions in society that prevent us from descending into anarchy? Should we simply have criminals arrested and tell them "Naughty, naughty, but we can't judge you, only god can, you are free to go"? | |
