[This article just started making its rounds on the net... nothing really
surprising for those who have been following Prince's religious life over
the past decade or so. Still, don't recall reading such direct candid

haven't seen evidence of such distain. I understand growing and
I concur with both Derek Amil... The view (ag. gay marriage, etc.) that
he expressed would be totally consistent with his professed JW beliefs...
The way he is reported as expressing it, though (they want to put IT in
wherever), comes off as crass, base, unsophisticated, and simplistic as
those
