From the sociological view, Religion IS culture. And I totally agree with you. We should be able to discuss about it. I think Christianity and Muslim are A LOT more unforgiving, though they have a lot of good quality too, but the talk of religion is forbidden on this forum so I won't go into that.

Japanese beliefs are not explicitly expressed as a faith, but people are actually pretty religious in their own way. I just want some respect. Not to me, but to other Japanese people. Really. I BEG you to respect other cultures. It's hard, I know. But unless we try, there is only war.
