The 1955 Ethiopian constitution stated, "The Ethiopian Orthodox Church, founded in the fourth century on the doctrines of Saint Mark, is the established church of the Empire and is, as such, supported by the state."

"Haile Selassie's attitude to the Rastafarians
Haile Selassie was never a member of the Rastafarian faith. During his lifetime, the Emperor was a devout member of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. His views towards the Rastafarians varied from polite interest to unsettled concern. Selassie did not personally believe the divine claims made of him by the Rastafarians. When interviewed by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's Bill McNeil in 1967, Selassie denied that a man could be an emanation from God."

"On November 5, 2000 Emperor Haile Selassie was given an Imperial funeral by the Ethiopian Orthodox church."
