"there are millions of Christians throughout the world, your Imperial Majesty, who regard you as the reincarnation of Jesus Christ.
Selassie's answer: "I had heard of that idea. I also met certain Rastafarians. I told them clearly that 'I am a man,' that 'I am Mortal,' and that 'I would be replaced by the oncoming generation, and that they should never make a mistake in assuming or pretending that the human being is emanated from a deity.'"
They wont even listen to their own God's instructions, what does that tell you?

I find articles like this interesting in a "comparative religion studies" way.
I am also interested in learning more about the history of Ethiopia .... especially how Ethiopia and Christianity and the Jews are tied together (ark of the covenant and early Christianity)
