Which describes the role of Christianity in North America? (Points : 2) ---> Forced conversions of native populations helped European governments maintain absolute authority in their colonies. Christian missionaries found converts easily because Europeans ruled over conquered populations of sedentary cultivators. Mass adoption of Christianity resulted in the elimination of indigenous religious practices and traditions. European religious traditions became predominant as a result of burgeoning settlements of the French and English colonists.
