Major Religions in the Caribbean: Christianity Dominates, Not Islam/Hinduism
The premise is incorrect. Christianity (mostly Protestant & Catholic) is the overwhelming majority faith across the Caribbean. Significant minorities practice:
- Afro-Caribbean traditions (Vodou, Santería, Obeah, Revival Zion)
- Rastafari (indigenous Jamaican movement)
- Hinduism & Islam exist primarily in Trinidad & Tobago, Guyana, Suriname due to Indian indentured labor, but are not region-wide majorities.
Religious landscape varies by island’s colonial history and migration patterns.
