Christianity becoming a minor religion in South America

Answer 1

Christianity becoming a minor religion in South America. This consequence most likely resulted from sacred Indigenous religions being banned by Europeans. By banning Indigenous religions and forcing conversion to Christianity, the Europeans effectively suppressed Indigenous spiritual practices and traditions. This resulted in the loss of Indigenous religious texts and weakened the transmission of Indigenous myths and history. As a result, Christianity became the dominant religion in South America, with Indigenous religions becoming marginalized or extinct in many regions.
