Jon,

I would say to you that reading the Bible and His Majesty's words are very wise things to do. You are an exceptional youth, and I wish you all your heart's desires in the paths of righteousness.

I would also say to you there is a vanity and an ignorance in the assumption of the title of Ras. It is not necessary for you to have this title in order for you to be a faithful and righteous man. I hope you will reconsider it, while seeking a greater respect and understanding of the cutural integrities within the ancient Solomonic tradition. If and when you actually begin to carry out the respnsibilities of headship which are inherent in that title, you will find that the people will voluntarily call you 'Ras', as they have begun to do to I.

BTW: I will be tradding earth 40 years soon, so I dont know if "young Ras" would apply to me, however I will readily admit to being a babe and suckling in the wisman of HIM!

Peace and love.
