Africa is an Earthly representation of Zion. Africa has been corrupted by Babylon.Africa *would* be Zion if the materialism, racism, harmful ways of Babylon were eliminated.But they took us away from our homeland. The stole our history, replaced it with their own. Chant Down Babylon One Love...

Africa is not heaven on earth. It is the closest representation to Heaven on Earth. Africa has been, is being, and will be continually raped by the Babylon System. The holocaust of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, and subsequent materialistic oppression of various "inferior" cultures. Take a...

To overstand this concept you have to overstand how Rastas view race. A "white man" is not "white" because of his skin colour, but because of his mentality. Anyone who wishes to embrace the Babylon System (see original post) is and forever will be a "white man." As a Rasta, they are my...

Hmmm, for the first part of my answer, gonna step out of my Rasta shoes. Haile Selassie came to the throne at a time when Jamaica was the vast majority black, but an English colony ruled by white elite. In the churches on the predominantly Protestant island, the image of a white Jesus was...

First InI give most Ilaful welcomes to InI brother from the Tribe of Judah, Judah_B. Just wanted to point out to truthseeker that Haile Selassie does not replace Christ as the Messiah, he is just an addition. Also would like to agree with Bandit. Certainly examples such as us prove...

Yes, Brian that makes alot of sense. Repartriation isn't happening very quickly - with the Shashamene issues and then the reelection of the Ethiopian government. Something is planned for next year I believe, wonder how many contacts I'm losing. By the way, with regards to this article, I am...

While the treatment of blacks was a major factor in the separation of RastafarI from Christianity, in reality the theological factors were probably the greatest reason. It would seem that Rasta beliefs are just too drastically different for them to be accepted by the Christian community. One...

Rastafarianism is considered to be a movement but is also known as a religion. Rastafarianism started at the beginning of time, but was stolen and hidden by the Philistine, Babylonians and the Romans from the Israelites or Jews. Blacks or Africans are considered to be the true descendents...

It's a pity that they didn't want to cover both sides of the issue. That's not the way to unite. Would be interesting to see if someone wanted to look at both sides. From our side, many bredren I talked to were not opposed to the idea. One Love CanuckRasta
