Not everybody in Jamaica is Rastafarian though - I actually saw more Christian churches than anything while I was there. Just as Rastafarianism isn't contained to JUST Jamaica... however, I've been to several of the Caribbean islands several times and only in Jamaica have I heard "irie" used in conversation...

edit: which is why I preferred to say it's a Jamaican term rather than Rastafarian.
