I like this board and give thanks to the trini-site for putting this up. i think this is the most international rasta message board on the web and usually has some stimulating posts and responses, and has postential to do big things in the future. However it seems lately to be sliding down into repetative circular arguments that's like flogging secretariat, and gets us nowhere. Discussion and reasoning is healthy and thats why I think we are here. Seems like lots of mudslinging going on. Know-it-all attitudes from people with only a minimal textbook knowledge of rastafari.when you are new to a faith i feel you should come more humble to the table, the higher you climb the more you expose.The race thing is going nowhere and it needs to be out there, it won't be solved here on this board, but if we can try and be intelligent about discussing it and not make sweeping prejudgments and generalizations about a whole set of people that would foward the talk. One note on courtesy: If you change the subject of your thread PLEASE change the Title of the thread.resepect concrete to the elders and intellegent posters on this board. a simeon
