Religion in the Caribbean often plays a significant role in shaping people's cultural practices, social interactions, and daily routines. It can influence beliefs, values, and behaviors, providing a sense of community, spiritual support, and moral guidance for individuals. Many Caribbean countries have a diverse religious landscape, with Christianity, Hinduism, and Islam being the main faiths practiced, each contributing to a unique blend of traditions and rituals that impact everyday life.
When it comes to religion, the Caribbean is dominated by Christianity. However, many different sects and cultural adaptations of Christianity can be found throughout the islands. From the religions of slaves and indentured servants to styles developed on the islands themselves, the Caribbean is full of a vibrant variety of faiths. When Europeans came to the Caribbean, they brought their own religions: The Spanish and French were devout Roman Catholics, while the British were Protestants. Irish migrants from Britain brought Catholicism with them as well, and the Dutch brought both Catholicism and Dutch Reform beliefs. The region's religions became even more mixed when the islands were claimed by different nations, as they often were throughout the Caribbean's early history. But religious diversity exists even on the islands that rarely or never changed hands. Slavery and indentured servitude brought many people with many different faiths to the islands. Still, the biggest challenge (and support) to the growth of Christianity was slavery. Slaves from Africa brought their own religious and spiritual practices with them, some of which combined with Catholic practices and became entirely new religions, while some spiritual beliefs simply occurred out of sight of the white masters. Many of the Caribbean-born slaves were indoctrinated into Christianity. In fact, the end of slavery helped encourage some religious diversity in the islands. East Indian immigrants brought their own beliefs and practices to the region. Almost one quarter of the population of Trinidad and Tobago is Hindu - one of the highest concentrations of Hindu people in the world. Small populations of Jews and Muslims also live in the Caribbean. Respectfully copied and pasted from www.caribbean-guide.info

The religion of Okonkwo's people, based on traditional beliefs and practices, focused on worshiping ancestors and nature spirits. In contrast, Christianity brought by Mr. Brown emphasized monotheism, with a focus on salvation through Jesus Christ. The two belief systems clashed, as Christianity sought to replace the indigenous spirituality of Okonkwo's people.
I do believe it that it is Christianity, but I may be wrong.
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.
