India's Problem, Krishna or Christ
"India's Problem: Krishna or Christ" by John P. Jones is a detailed examination of the social, economic, and religious landscapes of India written in the early 20th century. The work contrasts Hinduism and Christianity, exploring the complexities of Indian culture and the potential for Christian influence and transformation within it. The opening sets the stage for a comprehensive study of India, highlighting its immense diversity and the challenges faced by its people. The beginning of this work introduces the vast and multifaceted nature of India, outlining its geography, demographic diversity, and the socio-economic conditions of its people. Jones delves into various aspects, such as the physical features of the land, the varied cultures and languages spoken, and the persistent poverty experienced by the majority. He emphasizes the conservative nature of Indian society, rooted in ancient customs and traditions, and sets up the context for discussing the religious frameworks in India, particularly focusing on the tensions and interactions between Hindu beliefs and Christian teachings. This opening portion serves both as a historical overview and an invitation to explore the critical question posed by the title: the choice between the philosophies of Krishna and Christ.
