Can anyone explain why Alice In Wonderland was written by a Christian minister?

Can anyone explain the clear relationship between religions and Alice In Wonderland?

Alice was published in 1865, three years after the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson and the Reverend Robinson Duckworth rowed in a boat, on 4 July 1862 , up the River Thames with three young girls...

Were parts of the Bible changed/amended/borrowed/revised to write Alice In Wonderland?

If the author, a Christian minister, did not have a background in the Bible, would Alice In Wonderland ever have been written?

Did God ordain Lewis Carroll, a Christian minister, to write Alice In Wonderland?

Alice in Wonderland was written more from the point of view of mathematics than religion.

Mathematics - really?

In what way?

Can you give an example or two?

"The red queen's race" from Alice in Wonderland is a common philosophical and mathematical concept. There are others. Carroll''s imagery graphically illustrated many fascinating philosophical concepts.

why must everything a minister writes be related to Christianity?
