What role did religion play in the cultural misunderstandings and colonial relations of
Europeans and Native peoples in the New World?

Respuesta :

Religion played a very important role in cultural misunderstandings of not only European and native peoples in the new world but also between different cultures inside a single religion or region.

Religious beliefs of the Western countries are directly based on the coexistence with science in the new world whereas the Indian subcontinent is definitely more towards the spiritual mentality. This world view in European countries where atheism is getting stronger day by day, Indian culture is staying strong on their roots and definitely protecting their Heritage by implementing their own structure of belief.

The underlying tenet of Indian spirituality, where the majority of cultural ideas and religious practices are hierarchical, is directly at odds with current global policies and thinking towards science as well as blending religion and science in European ways.

The majority of western and European cultural practices do not adhere to Indian cultural norms for apparel or other considerations like food preferences. This conflict between cultural and ethical ideas, which also exists in European and Indian cultures, causes misconceptions about both civilizations' ethics and cultural beliefs.
