Christianity is an Earth religion founded in the first century AD following the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Its adherents, usually called Christians, believe that Jesus is the Son of the one God who created the universe and that he was sent to redeem the people from their sins. Christianity is a religion with multiple sects--usually called denominations, that largely fall under three major groups: Catholicism, Protestantism, and Orthodoxy.
Earth's early history, literature, and arts were strongly influenced by this monotheistic religion, though some sources suggest that in the post-First Contact era, its influence waned considerably, making its believers a minority group among humans.
In some universes, non-humans and those with partial non-human ancestry are also known to practice the religion. (Star Trek: Sigils and Unions Catacombs of Oralius--"Captives' Ransom", Star Trek: Pendragon)
