The Aztecs were polytheists who believe in deities such as Quetzalcoatl and Huitzilopochtli.
The Spanish were very wary of the Aztec religion. In some cases they even exploited it. Perhaps most importantly though, their attitude showed that they did not like the Aztec religion and tried to convert the Aztecs to Christianity.
Following the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire in the 16th century, many Aztecs were forcibly converted to Christianity by the Spanish colonizers. Over time, the majority of Aztecs adopted Christianity as their religion, although some indigenous practices and beliefs were also integrated into their faith.
The Aztecs converted to Christianity primarily due to the influence of Spanish conquistadors who arrived in their territory. The Spaniards, led by Hernan Cortes, imposed Christianity as the dominant religion, often using force or coercion to enforce the conversion. This ultimately led to the decline of traditional Aztec religious practices and the widespread adoption of Christianity among the Aztec population.
The Aztecs practiced their religion through rituals, ceremonies, and sacrifices. They believed in many gods, with each one representing different aspects of life such as agriculture, sun, and war. The Aztecs often built temples, pyramids, and conducted ceremonies to honor their gods and secure their favor for good harvests and protection.
The Spanish viewed Aztec religion as primitive and paganic due to the human sacrifices performed. They saw it as a threat to their own religious beliefs and sought to convert the Aztecs to Christianity during their conquest of the region.
