Description
Summary:The topic "Indian Christians of Indigenous Origins and Their Solidarity with Original Groups" is not without its difficulties. In the first place to recognize the identity of the undefined "original groups" is difficult. A further distraction is the implication that not all Indian Christians are of indigenous origins. An evaluation of Indian Churches of indigenous origins would have been more in my field of research. Indian Christians are, of course, persons. But, then, so are the Churches, that is, Churches consist of people. Churches, however, take on institutional expressions with varying shades of Indian indigeneity or foreignness. Nevertheless, an attempt is made to cope with the questions that are related to the theme under discussion.
