Abstract
It is the purpose of this thesis, then, to demonstrate that the people of Guatemala are not even truly Roman Catholic, much less Christian. We shall likewise present the reason for this fact, namely, that some teachings and many practices of the Roman Catholic Church in Guatemala were taken over directly from the Indian religions. Hence the title of this thesis shall be: "Pagan Elements in the Teaching of and the Practices of Roman Catholicism in Guatemala.”
