Question by player Paul1405

Answer: Haile Selassie

Rastafari, Rastafarians, or Rastas follow the religious movement called Rastafari. The religion is monotheistic, believing in one God. That God is called Jah or Yah, which is a short form for Yahweh, the personal name of God. It is believed that Jah lives partially inside everyone.

Many Rastas believe that the former emperor of Ethiopia, Haile Selassie, is the Second Coming of Jesus, although there are other interpretations of exactly what his role is within this religion. Another belief is that he is the human embodiment of the teachings of Jesus but not the actual manifestation. Whatever the belief with regard to Selassie, he is a central figure within the religion.

Answer: Lutheran

Charles V, the Holy Roman Emperor, hoped to unite the various German states, using religious unity as the basis for political unity in opposing the Turks. He called a meeting ("Diet") at Augsburg on 24 June 1530. The princes, electors and other leaders presented a document of 28 articles (21 describing their faith and 8 condemning Roman Catholic beliefs).

This was known as the "Augsburg Confession", was included in the Lutheran Book of Concord, and became a fundamental document in Lutheranism. An English-language translation of the Confession was offered to King Henry VIII of England in 1536 but he declined to sign it.
