One correction: Ethiopian Orthodox Church is not part of Eastern Orthodoxy, it is part of Oriental Orthodox community. Because Eastern Christianity is divided in three branches: Eastern Orthodoxy (Serbian, Russian, Greek, Bulgarian etc.), Oriental Orthodoxy (Ethiopians, Copts etc.) and Eastern Catholics. However, most of Eastern Orthodox believers view Oriental Orthodox believers as their brothers and sisters (and vice versa), and dont see any difference.

The last sentence is actually a specific heresy called ecumenism in the Orthodox Church. We see a brotherhood with them in that they’re fellow Christians but we have been split since the 5th century and are NOT in communion with them. This means we are closer “brothers” to Catholics than them, and even with Catholics most would say that’s a pretty big split. This is a common misconception and this is what I thought when I converted to orthodoxy There are multiple oriental orthodox churches and from what I understand they don’t make a cohesive group. Where Russians, Antiochians, and Greeks are all in communion, I think the Eritreans, Armenians, Malankara are actually out of communion from the Assyrians. From what I understand the bond between the former group is fairly loose.

the "Christology divide" is a foreign concept, and worthless if compared to centuries of shared monastic tradition, with us the "Orientals" share common beliefs of the Monarchy of The Father, Uncreated Divine Energies and a genuine Theosis, all more important than the supposed chalcedonianism of the L*tins

Thadeus Gaspar its not over exaggerated, Coptic Christians will claim we’re in communion but we are not. Not only do they have a major theological difference, they also have a prideful church who refuses to admit any wrong, says it’s due to “language differences”, and continue venerating their heretical saints. Nothing personal, I’m fascinated by Coptic Christians in many ways.

Non-religious is not synonymous to atheism.

Rastafarianism was first introduced to New Zealand with reggae music in the mid-1970s. It became better-known after tours of New Zealand in 1979 by Jamaican reggae star Bob Marley and black British theatre group Keskidee Aroha. Several local Rastafarian reggae bands were formed, mainly with Māori and other Polynesian members from Porirua, near Wellington, and Ponsonby, Auckland. A global Rastafari organisation, the Twelve Tribes of Israel, formed a New Zealand chapter in the mid-1980s. Rastafarianism became especially influential around Ruatōria on the East Coast, where young Māori combined Rastafarian beliefs with the local Ringatū faith. On Mahia Peninsula, many white New Zealanders have had their first, and very positive encounter, with Maoi Rastafarians. Much admired Green Party MP Nandor Tanczos was New Zealand’s best-known Rastafarian until he retired from Parliament in 2008. In 2011 the first National Gathering of Rastafari was held in Wainuiomata, Wellington. In 2013 New Zealand Rastafarians adherents numbered about 1,900. Others, identifying in some lesser way, culturally at least, are estimated at an additional 5,500.

This was found in studies from Luca Pagani 2012, with the first inner Ethiopian genetic studies ever made. So the theory, that Eritrans and Northern Ethiopians had mixed with Arabs or Jemenites are dismissed, but for instance Somalians at indeed mixed with Jemenites Arabs due the Islamic kingdoms over a millennium.

Actually you are wrong about Halie Selassie not being concerned about Africans in the African diaspora. Not only was he a pan africanist He sent Abina Yeshaq Mandefro to the carribbean and america because he was concerned about us in the diaspora and was upset about blacks in the diaspora thinking christianity as a "white mans religion " because that was foreign to him . Because of this many of us in the diaspora are Ethiopian tewadhedo orthodox today. Also there are some rastas that are also tewahedo - there are "many mansions in rastafari so there are some that are tewahedo and some that are not. Some are bobo shanti, and others . Rasta tewahedo are orthodox Christian and dont believe that Hallie Selassie is God like most rasta . And also why would you day he didnt care about blacks in the diaspora when he set aside land for them? I'm actually not a rasta I'm a punk rocker who is tewahedo . But I have friends that are and plus I've researched this religion. And whether you dig it or not, Bob may have had white ancestry but many of us do we are all apart of the African diaspora.

You could make a 2 hour video about Rastafari and just cover the surface. You didn’t talk about Ital (vegan, no salt) diet. The Hindu influences on the religion which are assumed to be from the Indo-Jamaicans- the ganja, no-meat diet and dreadlocks are a borrowing from Hinduism. The extreme pacifism, as far as I know nobody has fought or died for Rastafari, which most religions can’t claim. Two things in this clip that Rastafari may find offensive. The word Rastafarian is offensive because the Rastafari see their movement as a spiritual movement and not a religion and ‘-ian’ implies a religion. And the suggestion that Haile Selassie is dead is offensive. A good introduction to an admirable spiritual movement.

Do a video on the Ethiopian Jews, who have called themselves Beta Israel and who were pejoratively called Falasha. These days, they mostly live in Israel, and most of those moved there from Ethiopia in the 1980s and early 1990s.

Selendria Muganogo You’re right, there’s a reason for that!East Indians were brought to Jamaica, being poor and living in close proximity, Rastas adopted the dreadlocks from hindu holy men, as well as strict vegetarianism called ital. The ital way and dreadlocks are also adopted from the Nazarite order, which is in Numbers chapter 6. The Nazarites were among the first Christians

Just want to clarify, marijuana is medically legal in Jamaica federally. Anyone, even a non-citizen, can pay to become medically certified to be able to enter medical dispensaries and purchase product. If you want to see more, look up the Kaya dispensary. If I remember right it’s in runaway bay.

WRT the headgear, as soon as I heard the name "Tam", something I already knew was triggered. Thanks Wikipedia: - "A tam o' shanter (in the British military often abbreviated to ToS), or 'tammie' is a name given to the traditional Scottish bonnet worn by men. The name derives from Tam o' Shanter, the eponymous hero of the 1790 Robert Burns poem" "The tam o' shanter is a flat bonnet, originally made of wool hand-knitted in one piece, stretched on a wooden disc to give the distinctive flat shape, and subsequently felted."

Mike H On the tour of Bob’s house in Jamaica 🇯🇲 I got told that by the tour guide.....who I believe was one of Bob’s Children. He converted to Ethiopian Orthodox. Which in my opinion is probably the closest thing to true Christianity ✝️. As it was on of the first established churches prior to Roman Catholicism.

PRESENTATION 101; RESPECT. "Those funny hats with colors on them?" End of video. Is that some kind of intro., for clowns? Is that some serious joke bro, genuine ignorance, or total disrespect? Are you so blind to see that the "funny hats," cover the Rastaman greastest, outward, physical expression, their hair, they deliberately choose to borne, inspite of humiliation, oppression, isolation? How can your intro be, so cavalier about the Rasta hair/head covering and the colors that are commonly displayed? Would you have taken the same approach to the Sikhs, Jews, or any other group of peoples, who cover their hair/head? Is this a blackman talking like this? RESPECT DE RASTA PEOPLE.
