I don't have a religion called Christianism, I'm a Christian and have faith...

There's no reason to get hung up on labels. Christianism sounds funny, but I'm sure the word Hinduism sounds funny for people born in India.

I doubt it. Hinduism is the correct term for the religion. Christianity is the correct term for 'Christianism'

Yes. Christian's religion is called Christianity.
With "ism", there are Hinduism, Jainism, Sikhism, and maybe a few more

Nein. In India,"Hinduism" is called Sanatana Dharma, or the "Eternal law/truth/righteousness/whatever else." Brits coined the term "Hindu" and subsequently "Hinduism."

I meant in the English language. I'm sure Christianity is not called Christianity in the Hindu language.

Oh by the way if anybody doesn't knows, "India" is a name given by Britishers. India's actually name is Bharat, and Hindustan (from which Hinduism generated).

The problem I have with the term Christian is it is so broad now, it can mean any thing from Catholic to Mormon to Jehovah witness to baptist, so I just say I'm a bible believer.
