    Oh no,

    sales of Rasberry Berets are going to take a plunge.

    you know, the kind you find in a second hand store.

    I agree. Prince is referring to the story of Noah's Ark.

    I think he's more likely referring to Sodom and Gomorrah. Which is interesting, because the church has focused solely in on sexual sin for that...while the prophet Jeremiah made it clear that they were judged for not having compassion on the poor, but instead being too proud and haughty.

    Genesis doesn't describe in detail the "wickedness" of man that led to the flood.

    Whether his comments were anti-gay or not, it's still strange to hear Prince make such sexually conservative comments.

    Man oh man, if you could sell a copy of the Bible in 'Prince' translation, would that not make you a billion $s? LOL.
