Default LONG LIVE RASTAFARI (let wisdom reign) - 12-23-2001, 06:57 PM

the amharic ethiopian words RAS(head) TAFARI(creator) it was also sellasies name before he was crowned haile sellasie.
dispite mixed beliefs on who this little wise man was heavenly (if he was here he would tell you how being a leader of people who never overstand and would rather understand is hard), rastafarians have opened up the eyes of those who are willing to seek or add knowledge and conciousness of africa to even mentally enslaved africans themselves. they made it known to me what the roman catholic church doesnt want you to know that ethiopia has the earliest form of christianity years before rome. ethiopians were the first to try assemble the bible in the name of kebra negast before romes king james version. this and more are what white washed post slavery post colonialism xristianity doesnt want you to know. most of whose critics make rastafarians look like the real christians. to me mandela, steve biko, dedan kimathi where better jesus like shepherds than majority of the missionary clergy.
mennn!!!!!!!!!!!! self defeat will only destroy you, it wont help you progress, it will only eat you up, driving you to fight against your brothers and thus yourself.
as the wise dreadmen say ''one ounce of knowledge is greater than an ounce of gold''
the roman church(modern xristianity) has consumed and embraced filth in the past that needs to be cleaned for the sake of the future, and the rastamen know that.
''the race is not for the swift neither the strong in battle or the battle for the strong but for those who endure the test till the end!!! (sherman solomon, the wise challice)

SO!!!!!
XRISTIANS HAVE BEEN FIGHTING A LOOSING BATTLE ALL ALONG, YOU WILL NEVER GET AWAY, JESUS WAS A SOLDIER FOR THE OPRESSED PEOPLE ARMY AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN, AND HAS ALWAYS WON THEIR BATTLES, YOU AND I KNOW YOU ANGER HIM MORE WHEN YOU BLASEPHY HIS WORD AND LIE TO HIS CHILDREN , BE SURE TO LOOSE THIS ONE. PERSONALLY I WOULD RATHER SEEK THE TRUTH TO DEATH THAN SPOT SOME FILTH IN MY RELIGION AND CONDON IT OUT OF IGNORANCE.
HAHAHAHA

MY OPINION FROM YOUR TEXT THE WAY YOU PUT IT, YOU THROW THE NAME JAH LIKE FILTH OR THE IGNORANT WHO CRITICIZE WITHOUT RESEARCHING ANDCAREFULLY READING THE BIBLE.
WHY WE CALL HIM JAH!!! READ ( PSALMS 68:4 )

AND PLEASE GROW INTO CONCIOSNESS AND DONT FIGHT IT.
