വിവരമുള്ള് പോളിനു :
Proving Christian identity in Kerala was not my intention. I was just pointing out that when Christianlity began in Kerala, there was no Hindus. It might be a missionary history or someone's history - there is no science to prove that. Hindus are , just like other religions, adopted to Kerala culture. Paul appears to be little informed about the history or general agreement among historians on arya-dravida cultures and histories. BJP/Sangh parivar sponsored historians
and excavators would even digg up Ganapati evidences from Mecca and even claim that Buddists were hindus first then buddists.

(this is taken from a website but pretty much summarise what i had read about)
Jainism was the first organized religion to
reach Kerala. During the reign of Emperor Chandragupta Maurya (321-297 BC) the Jain saint Bhadrabahu is believed to have brought the religion to Kerala. Several Hindu temples, like the Koodalmanickam temple, are considered to have originally been Jain shrines. Jainism is supposed to have flourished till about 500 AD
Next came Buddhism, introduced by the missionaries of Emperor Ashoka. Buddhism flourished in Kerala from 200 BC till around 800 AD. Vadakkunathan temple at Thrissur and several others were reportedly Buddhist shrines. The Hindu community of Ezhavas, believed to have been Buddhists who migrated from Ezham (Sri Lanka), still show the influence of Buddhism.
Local rulers of Kerala began to bring in Brahmins from the North and settle them with gifts of land and privileges. The Brahmins brought Aryan beliefs and practices to Kerala. They had a well-developed language, Sanskrit, and knew about the relationship between seasons and agriculture.
The Brahmins were able to impress the rulers and the people, and began to impose their religion and social system in Kerala. They could not completely ignore local beliefs and customs, and so the Hinduism in Kerala incorporated local deities and practices. Unlike in the North, it was a tantric form of worship that gained acceptance here.
Local rulers began a temple building spree all over Kerala. Many Jain and Buddhist shrines were converted into Hindu temples. Formal practices for temple construction and rituals were developed. The tantra samuchaya, for example, lays down the Hindu temple practices in Kerala.
Changes in land-ownership laws led to the Brahmins losing much of their land to tenants who were cultivating them. Brahmins lost their social pre-eminence and their place was taken over by other communities, notably the Nairs.
