I must have been pretty tired cause i wrote out a post several days ago, guess I never got to hit submit....

So yeah, rasta differ in the way their interpretation of the bible, without getting into it too much since this is a topic that we would basically have to write essays back and forth to fully converse about. Selassie was given titles upon becoming King that find their root in the Bible. The Book of Revelations tell of the Lion of Judah (Christ) Ras Tafari is thought to have Christlike qualities, people like to throw out the term "God Incarnate" to discredit our beliefs because to those who are not devout it just sounds like insanity. If you think about through the eyes of a person of faith, we were created in the image of God, we are all his children, we are all him, just some were given sent with divine purpose. Selassie was a Man that in his time the whole world took notice of his good deeds and his struggle.

One more thing, people don't realize but the roots reggae that comes out these days is basically Gospel music in disguise.

I'm horrible, I can't stop writing here, I keep writing whole paragraphs that I later delete because each paragraph requires one more! Trying to keep it simple cause I don't like talking about things on the internet because anyone can say anything here, just not the same as face to face.
RedLocks Reviewed by RedLocks on . rastafari question i have been reading alot about the rastafari beliefs..really just out of curiosity...anyway, i was wondering..the idea behind dreadlocks is that you should not take a comb/scissors, or "western tool", to your hair..now being that the followers of this are predominantely(sp) afro american, that means, of course, dreadlocks form...so why would it not be wrong for white people to have their hair made into dreads, who practice this system of beliefs? it seems that it would be disrespectful to Rating: 5
