The Hills of Ruhanga

One hundred years ago white missionaries brought Christianity to Uganda. But God had been there long before Christianity - and they called him Ruhanga. He was a powerful, all-pervasive God, but he was accessible only behind a complicated hierarchy of diviners and evil spirits: through the intercession of the ancestors - ' the living dead.' Everyman reports from a remote region in South West Uganda and discovers that the faith of Ruhanga is infusing an imported Christianity with a vitality entirely its own.
