India has a long and rich religious history. Four major religions — Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism, and Sikhism — originated in India. Others, including Christianity, Zoroastrianism, and Islamism, have been imported.
Islamism has not co-existed well with the other religions because of its aggressive manner of pushing [[Islam]] on non-Muslims with the sword and by such tactics as forced circumcision. For example, more than 300 British soldiers were captured by Muslims in 1780 and forcibly circumcised.<ref>{{URLwikipedia|Forced_circumcision|Forced circumcision}}</ref>
