Japanese are truly the master race. I desire a Japanese wife so that my progeny will belong to the noblest race of people on this planet, but I fear that my mutt genes are unworthy of a gracious Japanese princess.

Few asians self-identify as atheists.
Austin Parker
They mostly self identify as Buddhist, as far as Japan, but in like 3 questions, or less, you can see they are practically atheists. Well, technically Mahayana (Zen) Buddhism is an atheist religion, anyway. But just even following the tenants of that most Japanese fall short.
John Morris
>you can see they are practically atheists And you think it's any different in the West? Saying you believe in Christ but never going to Church or doing anything other than celebrating Christmas is literally the same thing.

LMAO this is bullshit. Why are low-crime European countries not accused of the same?
Lucas Cooper
But atheism is a disbelief in a deity. Zen Buddhism has no deity. They are atheists by default.
Owen Brooks
Low crime Middle Eastern ones are accused of fudging numbers.
What low crime European countries are there? Isn't it just lower than Americas/Africa?
Andrew Turner
Buddhists are not the major religious group in Japan though. They "follow" their local Shinto religion. And by follow I mean they follow the traditions that are strongly socially embedded into their culture but don't actually care that much about it, basically the same with Christianity in the West.
Camden Brown

Adam Jenkins
No, most follow some Shinto practices, but very few actually identify as Shintoist, if you ask them.
Ridiculous work hours and small living areas are one of the reasons I don't want to.
Julian Flores
And regardless, if you ask people in the West if they believe in God, they will say yes. Atheist is a dirty word. You adk Japanese, and they will say no. You do know the definition of atheism, right?
Elijah Reed
>> legally own Sup Forums Yes but invented by an American >> invented crypto currency Nope, this was obviously an American, since they only posted in American English
Brody Torres
You realize that going to Japan and asking people whether they believe *in* God or not is the same as asking whether they're Christian or not, right? Half the country identifies as Shintoist. The ones that do are already a bigger group than the Buddhists and Christians combined.
>You realize that going to Japan and asking people whether they believe *in* God
You do realize that theism is a belief in a god, and atheism is when you don't believe in god, right? They can be Shintoist, and still be atheist.

Spain has a low fertility rate, an aging population, high number of lonely neets, they don't eat soy very much, they have small dicks, they are short and their economy is an indebted shitbox. So replace soyboys with tomato boys and it is all true.

Jackson Martinez
Those are the ones affiliated to any Shinto sect.
Theism is the belief in gods. Asking whether they believe in God is asking whether they believe in Christianity, since Shinto is not a monotheistic religion.
Benjamin Jones
>In Japan a different model is generally adopted. Typically the industry is vertically integrated, meaning whisky companies own both the distilleries and the brands of blended whiskies. These companies are often reluctant to trade with their competitors. So a blended whisky in Japan will generally only contain malt whisky from the distilleries owned by that same company (sometimes supplemented with malts imported from Scottish distilleries). This clearly means that blenders in Japan have in the past had a significantly reduced palette from which to create their products. It has been suggested that this may have been a limiting factor in the success of Japanese blends, particularly outside Japan
Henry Russell
>The production of Japanese whisky began as a conscious effort to recreate the style of Scotch whisky. Pioneers like Taketsuru carefully studied the process of making Scotch whisky, and went to great lengths in an attempt to recreate that process in Japan. The location of Yoichi in Hokkaidō was chosen particularly for its terrain and climate, which were in many ways reminiscent of Scotland (although financial constraints resulted in the first distillery actually being built in the more convenient location of Yamazaki on the main island).
>One facet of the style of Japanese whisky comes from the way in which blended whisky is produced, and the differing nature of the industry in Japan. Despite the recent rise of interest in single malt whiskies, the vast proportion of whisky sold in the world is still blended. The requirements of blended whiskies are one of the main driving forces behind the diversity of malts produced by Scotland's distilleries. Typically each distillery will focus on a particular style, and blenders will choose from a wide array of elements offered by all the different distilleries to make their product. While sometimes a particular brand of blended whisky may be owned by a company that also owns one or more distilleries, it is also quite common for trading to take place between the various companies. The components of a blend may involve malt whisky from a number of distilleries, and each of these could conceivably be owned by a different company.
Xavier Kelly
These statistics are a bit misleading. All of them still partake in Shinto ceremonies, traditions and superstition. It’s not like Shinto is really a traditionally organised religion, you don’t go to Sunday sermons at your local shrine, so “affiliation” would be hard to quantify. And those that primarily identify as Bhuddist partake in these traditions, while those that primarily identify as Shintoist still believe in the Buddha and the various saints of Buddhism. Non-affiliated might mean they don’t care that much, not enough to feel either way, but it certainly doesn’t mean they are atheists.
What the fuck are you on. Atheism means the lack of beliefs in any superior, supernatural entity: wether that entity is God, gods or nature spirits or ancestors or whatever. If someone goes to a shrine to make an offering for good results or fertillity or for a good year or anything else, then this person isn’t an atheist.

Not true, there is a bunch of people who are "spiritual", wiccan, and evertyhing else, that consider themselves atheists.T is simply "a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods.". People always try to make atheism cover a wider spectrum than what it is.

>LMAO this is bullshit. Why are low-crime European countries not accused of the same? because of memes, anyways the homicide rate of Japan and a lot of Western European countries is not that different, the reason why Japan's is lower is because it has been steadily declining over time (following a worldwide trend like most of the countries) even though is already low, meanwhile in some European countries it has gone up since the 21st century.

>All of them still partake in Shinto ceremonies, traditions and superstition. [Citation needed]
I am Japanese and my family doesn’t do that.
Buddhist traditions are not Shinto traditions. Shinto began in the 1800s. Buddhist traditions go back thousands of years. Shinto is a government-sponsored copied version of Buddhism. Meiji himself pushed that change.
Foreigners are annoying when they believe they understand Japan.
Samuel Kelly
What the fuck happened in 1966?
Cameron Reed
The again, “Shinto” has multiple definitions. Mine is the organized sect itself.
The character itself is derived from Chinese. Shinto and Buddhism are also syncretic, which is why my family is Buddhist and not Shinto.
This is similar to China with Taoism and folk religions. Would you call a Chan believer a Taoist if he also follows Taoism? Or is he both? Or Chan first, since Chan is more relevant to many?
Your claim that all Japanese go to Shinto ceremonies is wrong either way. Most recent surveys say 75%, and that’s only for tradition. No religious beliefs are attached to that.
Therefore, Shinto people identify as Shinto. And I stand by the “misleading” census.
It was a traditional motive. Do you know how Chinese and Koreans try to have kids during certain years? Rural Japanese follow a similar system. 1966 was a horrible year that happens once every century. The kids are supposedly cursed, but my mom seems fine

This os analogous to how a lot of the Theravada Buddhism practices in Thailand are connected ro pre-Budshist animist beliefs, like the Rocket Festival, practiced in Laos, and NE Thailand is known as a Buddhist festival but predates Buddhism. Thais also have a lot of Hindu holdovers, like Ganesh.
