I learned alot in dem last few years by library research, studying de Bible an ting..an me haffi nuff fe learn its true!! But ME KNOW ONE TING IYAH WHERE ME AN DE I DIFFER AN DAT IS DE RECOGNITION OF SELASSIE..YAH SIGHT HIM DIFFERENTLY IYAH..Yah see me? me worshipped Selassie I as Jah Rastafari from marning, from whan me was a likkle yout gyal, an til jus 3 an a half yrs ago!!! me gwan be 43 Iyah..an me KULCHA IS SOME TING YAH NAH GWAN REMOVE FROM I..so Jesus wasnt a part of I life atal..jus some one fe bun since to I woman he represented Christianity an organized religion. But ME CHANGE NOW IYAH..AN ME TINK SEH DE I OVERSTAND I CHANGES..ME SIGHT JESUS AS GOD, PART OF DE GODHEAD TRINITY DAT IS MADE UP OF 3 PERSONS, FADDA SON AN HOLY SPIRIT..I AM SPIRIT FILLED.
