i was going to say. canada is not the promised land of sorts you're looking for. everything that you're attempting to 'escape' from in the united states exists here, too.
while your pilgramige may seem 'holy' and 'noble' on first glance...
you are just making a fool of yourself.
i'm sure that you believe you are rasta and all, and i can respect that, but you dont have to TYPE like that, honestly.
uuuuuh my king, does this dude hypmotise you or something to worship him, if some girl started calling me "my king" id start calling for a restraining order. I dont want to get murdered in my sleep by a white rasta.
Saying you can't be rasta, cause you're white is like saying you can't be christian cause you're black.
Sure, the original movement might have been against white people, but that was on the surface. it was against oppression.
and just because you're white doesn't mean you can't believe in the same things. sure it might have been aginst white people to begin with, but that doesn't mean their views haven't changed, or that they don't have valid points.
All these rasta kids will give it up when their trust fund runs out and they realize that all their money from the minimum wage job they are working is going to weed and poorly made clothes. The only thing worse than hippies is 20 year old rasta kids who think it is a religion to smoke weed. What they don't realize is that rastafarian ideals are even more far fetched and poorly thought out than mormon ideals.
haha there is actually a real religion no joke, one of my friends nos a guy that is, he asked him if all he does is smoked and he got mad pissed cause thats what every1 thinks
i hope ur fucking kidding cathliocs(roman cathlioc) are from all over the world.. in the vaticant 90 percent are italian... cathliocs arent from babylon u fucking tool... ive taking 9 years of cathlioc relgion/ theology get ur facts straight pro ho
i am not saying catholics are FROM babylon, i am saying the catholic religion is babylonian. i was baptisted catholic, and i have been to the vadicant (sp?) city
babylon does not exist it be an expresion it represent somethin like a dead society of da past derived from da fall of babylonia. rasta believ dat american society is babylon cause dey dont kno da "truth" of jah.
babylonia did exist an was an ancient city in da area dat is now Iraq.
no, if you work at abercrombie, that probably means you're hot. which, (i don't know if you know what anjelica looks like), she definitly is. That doesn't mean shit though, i know plenty of attractive people who don't have many friends or have been through tons of shit. The place you work at isn't an indication of who you are as a person, it's an indication of either how badly you need a job, or how well you can present yourself to those who are hiring you.
ya put she would have fake friends... look at her webshots.. i doubt she didnt eat to get new skis shes clibming outta the window of a huge house decked out in abercrombie, with a louie vatton bag... riiiight
actually, if you check her webshots, you can see a picture of a new Dior (super expensive mega-corporate fashion) line of clothes using all the rasta colors and her talking about how she is in love with it. and yet in this thread, she says how she hates when people wear the colors for fashion. ummmm. dude, if i think about that too hard, my head will explode.
babylon was an ancient society during the time of the mesopotaimians and the pheneocians. They were overthrown by the assyrians. Babylon was where israel and agypt are now.
lol no actually the greeks(spartans to be exact) created dreadlocks during the Persian War. The dreadlocks made them look alot more scary with all there armour(hence the dread part)which gave them the phsycological bonus on the field of battle
yo completly wrong. u thinkin of BABYLONIA. an da society of da BABYLONIANS. da expression BABYLON originated from da death of da BABYLONIAN society. an it wadnt in israel or egypt eitha muthafucka u woulda known dat if u read wat i wrote. it was iraq. get yo shit togetha boy.
you are the one who is wrong check it out:
The earliest mention of Babylon is in a dated tablet of the reign of Sargon of Akkad (24th century BC short chr.), who made it the capital of his empire. Over the years its power and population waned. From around the 20th century BC, it was occupied by Amorites (nomadic Semitic tribes), flooding southern Mesopotamia from the the west, until it became the capital of Hammurabi's empire (ca. 18th century BC). From that time onward, it continued to be the capital of Babylonia, though during the 440 years of domination by the Kassites (1595-1155 BC), the city was renamed "Karanduniash".
The city itself was built upon the Euphrates, and divided in equal parts along its left and right banks with steep embankments to contain the river's seasonal floods. Babylon grew in extent and grandeur over time, but gradually became subject to the rule of Assyria.
actually Babylon was modern day baghdad, lying between the tigris and euphrates rivers, most famous leader was Nebacanezer II (sp) conquered the isrealites, then conquered by Alexander the Great and the Greeks while it was under control of the persians
