What are you oppinions on the rastafari religion?
Greetings Idrens,
I myself am new to this forum and hopefully i will be here for a very very long time. Im very religiously orientated, I follow Rastafari.
I was wondering on all your oppinions on the livity/religion?
Do you see rastas negatively or positively. Just to clean up, Smoking Ganja erb is not complusary in the religion, just an addon. Ive had many say something along the lines of:
"wow rastas are so cool, they are aloud to smoke weed!" totally false really, thats not all we do. Well anyway, i hope your ok Bless you all from the most high.
Jah Bless

Same here, I'm not into religions, even if it is Rastafari. But I guess it's the religion I look upon with the least 'negativity'
Aren't rasta's totally against gay people?
NOt that I fancy gay people, I just don't have any problem

Computer games don't affect kids. I mean, if Pac-Man had affected us as kids, we would all be running around darkened rooms, munching magic pills, and listening to repetitive electronic music.

i myself, a huge bob marley fan, have tried several times to research the religion. on wikipedia, it doesnt really give a reason for why haile hassaile is the messiah. Im a high school student, and I am very likely going to study religion in University. Though I myself am not religious it intrigues me. I was wondering if there are any texts you would recomend reading about Rastafari. I know a little...( Jah= God, Herb=sacred) but not alot.
sorry for any misspellings

rastafari Flow believe all shall be in unity, so no we dont hate gay people, we love them as we love everybody else (not in a sexual way).
Onelove-maryjane i will give you a website full of the religion itself, and it has many reasonings on H.I.M (Haile Sellassie I).
this will help you alot - http://www.forums.rasta-man.co.uk/
a very good resource site for your needs as well as for those who would like to study the religion or even join it if you wish to, im not pushing this onto any of these members on the forums, i am just opening the door for them, if you wish to close it or even walk through it its your choice.
