Musician, singer-songwriter, guitarist, christian, political activist, hero figure, political pioneer.

R.I.P Robert Nest Marley.

Another talented musician taken from us to soon at the young age of 36.

Happy birthday Bob, your music will live on forever!

However, what most people don't know, and many try to cover up, is the fact that Bob Marley converted to Christianity in 1980. In fact on 4 November 1980 he was baptised and became a member of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. When he was buried under Orthodox rites on 21st May 1981 it was with his Bible and his Gibson guitar!

Can you send a link to this info? My knowledge of the great liberator was from his biography. He spoke about the harsh judgement of christians and negativity of a made up white god ie... savior!

Link is above your post. And that is not true, Bob was half white himself.

"I don't have prejudice against meself. My father was a white and my mother was black. Them call me half-caste or whatever. Me don't dip on nobody's side. Me don't dip on the black man's side nor the white man's side. Me dip on God's side, the one who create me and cause me to come from black and white."
