Greetings...
My own feeling is that the L.J.S. is pushing their own agenda. Only in such a modern age are Ones able to reach out to so many, the internet is a powerful platform. I don't think Adoinas is fluent in Amharic or Ge'ez, I think he's self taught for the most part, and I give him credit for that, but he's using his knowledge of the language as some kind of authority which is disturbing to me. Some of the L.J.S. videos make some sense, but there have been some that I've found to be highly opinionated at best and offensive at worst. I realize he's become a Guru to some, yet it is usually not the Guru who seeks devotees, but the other way around. Anyways, its just my opinion...I have written the L.J.S. with my concerns about the picture of the Ba'atawi, and received no response.
Tyson, the I said there were good points for and against the possibility of the picture being His Majesty, in the Deception Reasoning. I would be interested to hear what you think are the good points for the possibility of the picture actually being His Majesty, because when I read the thread over I think it really shuts the debate down.
Aside from all the factual evidence against the possibility of that picture being His Majesty, there's also the complete lack of emotion from the I presenting the picture in the youtube videos. I ask anyOne, if you thought you had a recently taken photo of His Majesty trodding the hills as a Ba'atawi wouldn't the I's be proclaiming it ecstatically, and then wouldn't the I's make a plane ticket to Ithiopia to sit at Negus' feet your first and foremost priority, instead of debating this thing on the internet?
As for where His Majesty is now, Ark I is right, we'd all be making guesses. However, His Majesty did leave evidence regarding His opinion on the fate of His physical body.
Selam
