Best Answer

Hinduism came to the Caribbean with the migration of Indian workers to that area after the abolition of Slavery in 1834. Along with Hinduism, the Indians also brought cuisine, such as pungent curries, and ganja, which are important contributions to Caribbean culture. While Indian and Hindu influence can be found through out the British West Indies they are most pronounced on the island of Trinidad.

Christianity

Technically it isnt Christianity because the indigenous people (Amerindians) were the first known settlers in the Caribbean so unless evidence can prove that there were people inhabiting the Caribbean before the Amerindians then the first religion would be whatever the Amerindians believed in. Christianity was not introduced to the Caribbean until the late 1400's/early 1500's shortly after Columbus rediscovered the Caribbean looking for India
