There's this (possibly apocryphal) story I remember reading about as a child about how Gahndi in his youth went to a church to find out about spiritual answers, only to be turned away by a racist deacon and/or priest (sources vary). As such this made Gahndi a bit more critical and bitter towards christianity, and played a part in forming his own religious and spiritual opinions later in life.
What if in another reality? Someone else had been in that priests place and convinced Gahndi to convert to the word of Christ? Would Gahndi have still gone on to rally india to independence? Would he have even succeeded given even when he was an Agnostic in our timeline he was dealing with the serious religious divide between Muslims, Hindus and Christians tearing his country apart?
Anyone here who's familiar with Indian history who can give me a semi plausible timeline?
