I'm not saying Prince is homophobic--what I am saying is take everything Prince ever says in one of his useless, uninformative, interviews with a grain of salt. He probably is against homosexuals. IF Prince is really into his religion, and follows it properly instead of only the things that suit him, of course he's against it. Jehovah's Witnesses are 100% against homosexuality. Prince is either a religious fraud (not following the religion he believes in completely) or he is against homosexuals. You can't have it both ways. But many times people who proclaim to be religious aren't really. They don't follow the word, only what is good for them. That's such a fraud. [Edited 2/12/09 12:13pm] Religious leaders enouraging people to allow dogma to supercede your God-given rational brain and common sense in the name of religion -that's the real fraud. If there is a God, It gave us common sense so we could use it, not so we could toss it out the window for a book, even that Book. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

I think he was just trying to state his religious views while saying he wasn't against gay people. It didn't come out really well. | |

I think everyone has taken this quote the wrong way. I believe it was a way of saying, "I have gay friends, in the end we're all sinners." | |

[Edited 2/12/09 10:48am] Yup, I remember it all. In all these cases I think it's not so much that Prince hates people--it's that he thinks he's actually more clever than he is. What I love is situations when his preach atitude gets him PWNED, like when he appeared on MTV TRL. Carson Daily gave him a compliment saying, "an the age of plastic music and throwaway music, your music has actually stood the test of time" or something to that affect. Prince then says, "What" really rudely (perhaps misunderstanding him). And Carson then explains that Prince's music had more substance than what was currently being dished out on radio. Prince then says with a really smug voice and face, "I don't suppose you have anything to do with that?" Which in Prince's world, would be the end of the discussion. But not this time. Carson then explained, "Look, I'm like a bartender. I may not like the drinks my customers order, but that's what I'm paid to serve up, and that's what they ask for." pretty much shutting Prince up. Prince just gave a defeated, though still regretfully smug shrug after that. He looked like complete ass on TRL, and he was suppose to be there to beef up excitement over Rave Un2 The Joy Craptastic. Yeah, his problem isn't his views. It's the fact he thinks his views mean something more significant than his audience or those around him. Try pulling that "be a follower" shit on my Buddhist ass, and I'll be like, "be a light unto yourself--Buddha" asshole! | |
