That site calls itself the official site of Nyah Binghi. The owners of that site do not have that authority to make such a declaration. They can say that it is ONE nyah binghi site, but not THE OFFICIAL site.
Can we please stop talking and thinking like the pagans do? It is a shame that they actually think they can make the site the official nyah binghi site just by saying the words. Somebody who knows them should tell them......

I don't overstand ifficial nor official. To me both say the same thing and it is a lie, because they are saying that they are the only one who can take that name.
In that sense I am affected by it, even though I am not the official site. Still the wordsound of official belong to I. I am saying that it is a theft when they use it, and they are lying.
In life you can't just call yourself something and make it right. You have to earn a title and the authority to use it. In fact any true nyah binghi living in Toronto is what make up the true official Nyah binghi authority of Toronto, and the only way that could really be the official site is if they represent every rastaman in Toronto, which is not the case.
They are no different from governments all over the world who use words to confuse people from seeing the reality.
What they should say is they are ones who love what they know of as Nyah Binghi tradition. That way they are using true words and representing themselves properly. But "official" is not useful. As far as I know it is a slavery word. Official is a word that people use when they are pretenders to authority. True authority doesn't need to use such propaganda, because people know it to be real.

Gideon, the Nyahbinghi House of Toronto is an Ifficial Nyahbinghi House. It is not just some people saying that they are Nyahbinghi. The only way a Nyahbinghi House is truly a Nyahbinghi House is if it is blessed and ordered by an Elder sent from the Nyahbinghi HeadQuarters of Jamaica. It is not just some label that people put on theirselves.

You should learn the order of Nyahbinghi before you come and say what is or is not an Ifficial Nyahbinghi House.

So in that sense, to answer your question, I am speaking for the true owners of that name. And that site is not known to be the rightful owner, so they should not use the name. Whoever is the real owners are being wronged. Furthermore we are all the rightful owners of truth, so there you go.

Believe what you want gideon. No Nyahbinghi House is looking to you to see if you approve of them.

Give thanks for the Ifficial House Of InI Nyahbinghi Faith! Praise HIM Haile I Jah Rastafari. For those lacking the knowledge and are still stumbling over words for the sake of an argument, Nyahbinghi is the foundation, no fight against it. Why does it matter that it say Official, especially when it is official.

OFFICIAL- 1. or pretaining to an office or post of authority. 2. AUTHORIZED BY PROPRER AUTHORITY.
American Heritage Dictionary

Official does not mean the one and only place of what is true or right. There could be a million of the same official offices or what have you. Officiality is authorized by PROPER AUTHORITY.

Please let our hearts be upfill in our reasonings, not seeking to pick apart words for the sake of argument.

Praise HIM

Yes, official means authorised by the relevant authority. So when someone uses a word who is the relevant authority that can authorise that use of the word?
It is black that I will believe what I want to, that is a must. And I don't believe things just because people say it, especially when it sounds so strange. They are trying to tell me that the rightful owner of creation authorise that site.

And I still say they are claiming to be the only official site, because I have never heard of two official anything. To me they are saying they are the only site for Nyah Binghi is Toronto.

But don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with them or with their site, and if they want to use that name I am okay. I am just saying that the label is not appropriate. No big deal.

"So when someone uses a word who is the relevant authority that can authorise that use of the word?"

What kind of foolishness is this? If the Elders of Nyahbinghi declare that place official, they are the only authority on it! Why do you start these kinds of discussions? This is not intelligent reasoning.

"And I still say they are claiming to be the only official site, because I have never heard of two official anything."
Where are they claiming this? The Nyahbinghi Tabernacle is Official too in Shashaminie. It's a title, don't get so excited.

"To me they are saying they are the only site for Nyah Binghi is Toronto."

And no its not to you that they are saying anything, as a matter of fact I doubt that they have said anything to you at all. It's has nothing to do with what you think, and all to do with whats true.

Also I would like to ask you- Are you saying that they are not official? And if you think that they are officially Nyahbinghi, then what is it about the title that doesn't belong?
