givin thanks for your reasonin ,
i am in agreement with quite all the tings you say here .
when you talk about 1957 ....there where the rastafari movement take a religious stand , am i right to overstand this ?
maybe more obvious , because i think people already in 1930 where hailin Selassie I as the ALLMighty in flesh ....

what i&i would like to make it clear is that we do not have to generalize .
in accordance to your word/sound Ras Marcus , i see clearly that RasTafari liveth in all creepin things on the face of this earth and more ! , because really He is One with the breath of Life which live in each and every thing ( yahman , you said POWER OF THE TRINITY ) , so i thiunk there is no argument here with every rasta on the face of this earth . bein white or black .
both and each color people see this and hail the ALLMIGHTY of creation .

but then you go a mix up rastafari political movement sayin the true cause of rastafari is Africa for Africans , and so on ... and then again the true cause of RasTafari is 144.000 will be saved .

Now you see , i got to question one thing just to better overstand your reasoning .
so maybe you will better overstand mine .

RasTafari is a messianic movement ? a political movement ? or both ? in your sincere opinion .
i really would like to hear the elders opinion .
because , really , i do not exclude each part . for me a spiritual movement of course will affect the social environment . so , that's why for mi is First a spiritual movement .

and when you talk about 144.000 saints , you make mi think of this , bible talkin , sounds reasonin , confrontation and praises . not so ?
in reality , if this for you it is so clear maybe it is not for all the others , includin me . You see where all this fussin on board is comin ....

i hear you when you say africa for africans and europe for europeans , but this has nothin to do with the salvation you were talkin about .
as you say , it is believed that only the good from all side of the earth will be in those 1440000 ( but that is not really what i reasoned on that one ) so not only africans , right .
THIS means that each and everyone under his fig tree GOT to give Iternal Praise to RAS TAFARI .Becasue we site HIM as the King of Glory .

so i&i do not see all these differences .
you know where all this came out ? .....it came out when i&i move on prejudice and on false foundation , and when we generalize . ( whites talk and do nothin .....and so on ! i myself could say the same things of blacks ! )
ones and ones continue to say that RasTafari is ONLY about black determination and all dat , the foundation is black liberation ann counscious ,leavin COMPLETELY APART the Revalation , while in my opinion TOGHETER with that there is a message of Ineversal Redemption , because i KNOW Jah is no partial , and i KNOW Jah is manifestin trought HAILE SELASSIE I , and a message that is SPIRITUAL .

and i will give you more of my thoughts on that .....
political parties no never can win on spiritual matters .
political movement , black political movement , had been great , of great influence and very good and needed ( it is really matters of time ) . but look where they arrived at ....and i say this with sadness in my heart ( i am readin now huey p and the BPP ) they all went destroyded by the evil forces of babylon , i may think at the unia too , and all those great revolutionaries parties which made their move politically .......
and i look with this perspesctive at the rastafari movement too .......soon as the beginnin as it was more about truth & rights ( yes dat is ) political parties put them hand on each side .....tryin as allways to denstroy everything which stands for Truth and Rights .
what reamains is , in my opinion , that fire that could never be quenched , RASTAFARI, KING OF INEVERSE who stand for Equal Rights and Justice .FOR ALL .

Ras Marcus , believe me , i&i know of the 400 hundreds and more of sufferin , and by bein rasta , i&i do not wanna to cancel that , and i really want to see all the devil which still is goin on against poors and blacks in the world fall, and i am well sad enuff to know the situation in which Africa is still NOW , and as you , i know the causes of this tribulation .
all that sayin , i still think we are on the same side of the field in this ya final batlle .
RasTafari side .

Now , re-readin my post , one thing came to my mind .....nobody here seem to have to say nothin to you in reference to the Divinity of Selassie I , to the Power of the Trinity name , and so on .......

i notice that same words/sound uttered from different mouths make a different POWER !

this is another lesson i have learned ..

give thanks for movin my mind in this morning on higher hights ,

mo'love
