eng	Christian or Colonial? Debates about the Nature of Inter-Religious Dialogue in nineteenth Century India	There has been considerable debate about the nature of encounters between Europeans and Indians in the nineteenth century. Within the domain of post-colonial studies, it is widely accepted today that these encounters led towards the construction of Hinduism. But this explanation fails to answer question – what is specifically colonial about these inter-religious debates? In order to answer this question, it is necessary to analyse legacy of much older Christian thinking.
