What are the similarities between christianity and arawak religion?

Answer 1

"The term Arawak (from aru, the Lokono word for cassava flour), was used to designate the Amerindians encountered by the Spanish in the Caribbean. These include the Taíno, who occupied the Greater Antilles and the Bahamas (Lucayan) and Bimini Florida, the Nepoya and Suppoyo of Trinidad and the Igneri, who were supposed to have preceded the Caribs in the Lesser Antilles, together with related groups (including the Lokono) which lived along the eastern coast of South America as far south as what is now Brazil. The group belongs to the Arawakan language family and they were the natives Christopher Columbus found when he first landed in the Americas. The Spanish described them as a peaceful, gentle people, although this description was biased by the fact that any "hostile" groups were automatically classified as Caribs.

The Taino had organized systems of religion and government. They believed in good and evil spirits, which could inhabit human bodies and natural objects. They sought to control these spirits through their priests or shamans" As you can see there are some similarities
between Christianity and Arawak religion. I hope it helps.

Answer 3

Some (maybe all, I don't know) Christian holidays were transplanted over Pagan holidays. In the early days of Christianity, the Roman Empire was pagan. In order to make their religion more palpable to the pagans, the ealry Christians supplanted their feastdays on top of existing ones. Also, the days that current Christians celebrate holidays are not necessarily the same as original Christians. Check out Gregorian calender vs. Julian calendar. Lastly, there are differences between dates among Christian sects. Catholic Easter is usually on a different day than Eastern Orthodox Easter, for example.
