I don't think I like the direction you are going. I think it is a bit arrogant and ignorant to imply that two of the most peaceful religious belief systems in the history of the world are to blame, even in part, for Japan's suicide rate.

Your understanding of Japanese culture is clearly rudimentary at best. If this is really important to you, I recommend you do some research and take a look at Japan while taking off the cultural baggage you clearly bring with you.
