BTW, ever been to Japan? Your point about them being an atheist country shows your total ignorance about Japan. They are a very spiritual people and would never call themselves atheist.

What role does religion play in Japanese society? Almost none.

"What role does religion play in Japanese society? Almost none."

Based on what evidence? I see you didn't answer my question about actually having been there, so I assume you haven't. And, yes, I have.

As I said, you are clueless about this. They are not atheists and they would NEVER claim to be atheists. They do not believe in a deity like most people in the Judeo-Christian populations do but they are not atheists like you claim, either.
