Rastas believe in God(jah) but also believe in the deity of haille sellasie which distinguishes them from Christianity and an opportunity to see God and heaven. What exactly did Ethiopian Selassie do to get that honour? Besides, for those that practice that religion here, if Haille Selassie is a god, why is Ethiopia his homeland one of the poorest nation in the world plagued by famine?
We also have many gods in sub-saharan Africa: osun, ogun, sango, amadioha, etc etc etc
But one European explorer described Africa as
"a theatre of the blackest ignorance and crime, where brutal slave dealers and tyrannical chiefs held sway over the suffering millions in dire need of civilization"So, why did our many gods allow us to have such a nasty image???
