I've been starting to learn some Afro-Latin jazz as part of my piano study, and it's gotten me into listening to reggae as well, and I've really been enjoying it. There were naturually a ton of repeat references to things I knew nothing about. The Wikipedia page on Rastafarianism was enough for me and a Youtube video about the significance of Haile Selassie to the belief system instantly set off a whole bunch of conspiracy theory alarm bells.

I'm not in the market for any religion, but even if I were, I don't think this would be in my top 3. I'll stick with learning piano instead.

Piano is a good religion to have.

Not too many situations that would not be improved with some piano!
