Here is an email that an Idren sent to I and asked I to post
--------------------------------
My Lord, Blessed Love & greetings in the name of the trinity(selassie, emmanuel, marcus), bless thy holy mother of creation, the black virgin matrix. My lord something has been bothering me and i have utmost faith that the lord of host shall rectify these things that has now been seen as confusion within the community of InI who say we represent King Rastafari. I'm not in the hype of who see his majesty as God and who don't see HIM as a divine figure and so on; this can make us look as a regressive people than a progressive one, my lord a man payed a visit to my country of residence in Belize and appeared to be humble in the ways of God Almighty, he represents a ministry and a church namely the Ethiopian Tahawedo Orthodox Church, the man had a service at a local church that he had rented for this special occassion, so most of the brethrn of Rastafari went to support this effort, but the man told the brethrn them that if they want to be born again they must cut them locks and denonce Haile Selassie, is this any respect for anothers belief and faith, this brethrn come to convert instead of to educate in the name of the Lord, this is pure deception on his part. Ark, this man told my sistren that has bored my child who i named Aethiopia, may rastafari bless her and give her long life, but yeah this bredda tell the sistren that she should stop hang around the brethrns that say rastafari and especially them bobo brethrns, what made it even more disrespecting and intense is that he told the sistren when its time to baptise the child not to tell me for the child should be baptized by him, these things cause immediate war without say, Ark, you know i-man is shanty and this brethrn step inna the fire, my lord me neva know dah suh dem bredda deh di flex mi I. Ark that hurt mi heart, but i hold fast and did not react to these comments, all i say is emmanuel save his soul, this bredda gone mad iyah, this guy overstepped his boundaries I, this man disrespect the natural order of things and this we must not take lightly, we must question the motive of this Ethiopian Orthodox Church as to how they view his majesty, mi brethrn to tell you di truth i never really follow up pon di man dem, cause i always think di man dem support we brethrns inna di diaspora, but this bredda ya it was like he stucked a dagger deep into mi heart cause mi heart bled when di man come with all these ism. I-man is very isolated from society because of this reason that someone may offend I by disrespecting the love of my life, the joy of my heart and the water that quenches my thirst, Rastafari is truly victory, it tastes better than food. Anyway Ark InI have the greatest mission to publish His Majesties work and to let the world know of the living Jahovia God that cometh to this world in flesh from henceforth. My lord i can't even breathe as i type these words becuase having to rethink the actions of that brethrn is dispecable and unrealistic. My lord as usual i'll sign off for now because as you know i can't stay infront of this here beast for too long and man got roll call, peace, love, joy, happiness & long life in this here livity and maintain gravity inna dis here gideon, blessings to you and you family I.
