There at least four different strands of Christianity in India followed by different linguistic and cultural groups across India. The Syrian Christian Church in south India (Kerala) is over 1000 years old. Roman Catholicism was brought by the Portuguese (Goa) after the 1500's, followed by the Anglican Church by the British in the 1800's. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_in_India https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_in_India While older strands of Christianity have long since adapted to the culture of India the recent arrival of Evangelical Christianity from the U.S. since the 1980's is a problem since it is culturally jarring, morally self-righteous, and backed by donations from the U.S. Christians are just 2% of Indian population (20 million out of 1300 million) After dividing into the various Christians sects you are talking about small groups of people that are linguistically and culturally disconnected. A Goan Konkani has little in common with a Keralite Syrian Christian or a Mizoram Presbyterian. For Hindu nationalists, these distinctions don't matter and they have been very successful in creating a common Christian bogeyman to rally political support. Sadly, you can find these talking points repeated on HN by educated Indians.
