Most medications they take; most are on antidepressants and booze due to the rigorous rules that are enforced by the cult. They are taught to refuse blood transfusions.

I was raised a JW finally left it when in my early forties. My elderly parents have been shunning me ever since.

Only positive? Most children raised in it are way above their scholastic peers having been exposed to adult reading level propaganda from toddlerhood on. Oh and they dress neatly and are very well behaved. That is all.

He’s being praised because he was one of the most gifted musicians in American history.

***I weep for you all but right now I’m laughing my ass off because it is so insane to see this.

Your reaction proves all is lost and we will get what you deserve. What you think is important is just not but you are free to think it just as I am free to think what I do, so far.

Ta ta. Have a nice day.***

Wow. You are seriously one sick person. And you don’t see it, and never will.

Folks don’t waste your time with this one. This type of personality disorder isn’t fixable. Trust me I know from experience.

His best stuff was highly musical and memorable. And uncategorizable.

"Mission accomplished."
=======================
Indeed it is - as I noted, Prince loved to outrage and enrage
people. And, even in death, he's still got you spinning in fury
like a top on meth. Well played, Prince.

I am a teenager of the 80’s. This sucks.

He was a weird guy, but loved his music until he broke up the Revolution.

Not at all. The melodies of the Beatles and their vocal talent was much more pleasing to my ear. When "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" in the 70's, I was able to embrace the music of my own culture. Still had room for Allman Bros and even Lynrd Skynrd, Charlie Daniels, George Jones, etc. And always Bob Dylan. But, that's just me.

Sad. Purple Rain left a large mark in music of the 80’s.

RIP

Just saw this, sad. He was a talented but very weird artist.

Coincidentaly, driving into work this morning, “1999” was playing on the radio. For once, I had the FM radio on, not Fox Business on SiriusXM.

And I can’t play a lick and wish I could. I admire talent when I see it even if I don’t like their expression of their talent.
