Christianity in India spread from the south. Its history
is a missionary one. There are many Christian religions
in India today although Roman
Catholicism dominates. It recognises obligations to the state
and is largely independent of Rome. Christian influence
today lies mostly in the social fields (welfare, schools,
services etc.). Proselytation is not widely practised.
