OK dont shoot me ... I dont keep up on everything about Prince ... But has Prince said Publicly that he is a Jahovas witness ... I mean does he go 2 kingdom hall ?? the whole deal ?

Yes. He's done everything short of personally inviting us all to Kingdom Hall with him, and I think he'd probably do that if it were big enough.

I've never heard him quoted as saying that he IS a Jehovah's Witness, but he did apologize for being late for our soundcheck last March (2002) because he was "at the Hall." How often he goes, we don't have a clue...

I think Prince's shifting, searching views on religion are interesting, just not interesting enough to actually follow him everywhere to where he points.

And yes, I am that person with his hands in his pockets whenever Prince during concerts says; "Raise your hands if you believe."

Most people'll do anything. This site the proof.

At The Hammersmith Apollo in London on the Saturday night last October he said 'Aren't you all going to church tomorrow' there was a resounding 'NOOO' from the crowd. Think he was quite taken aback by the response.

It's fun to see people struggle with faith in this age of dwindling morals . Prince, having worked hard to demoralize us by making us shout MF, is now even more into the Lord than he used to be.
But I have the feeling he is lost and clutching at straws in this crazy world.
He always seemed a bit out of touch with reality, creating his own through uptown Minneapolis, purple rains, crystal balls and paisley parks. I felt a connection for the search and the sense of not belonging to any group.

But now he seems sure he has found the answer.

I am happy for him if it works, but what is with people who FIND religion and then become insufferably intollerant towards people who disagree with them or just any random group of people?
Just as he FOUND religion and "god", I hope he will stop finding it outside of nature and just accepts that every PERSON (as religion is a HUMAN concept only) has a good and a bad side. He of all people should come to grips with that fact.

WRONG FORUM, BTW

I miss Nicolas...

I think it just about squeezes into this forum on the grounds that the forum is 'Prince: Music and MORE'

Probably qualifies as 'more'.

Yes. it seems that Prince and Mani both are into the whole deal.

I remember that he did look very shocked yet if he did this in Scotland most people would have shouted out yes.

Just people all around the world believe in different things. People just do there own thing.

Yes, looking from the outside this may seem so. Especaily from pros who are good at putting on airs. But why do I sense they are both hypocrites putting on a show for everybody?
