Well.. That's not entirely true anymore.

It may of been about 70+ years ago but not anymore. It's more of a Christan Shinto blend now.

Go along. Your family gives a shit about you. The Japanese won't.

If you don't learn to grin and bear weird shit the west forces on you as you plot against them then you'll never be japanese.

>>68995896
Yeah, pretty much this. You can believe whatever you want but still do pretty much all the stuff for the sake of doing it as a family.

Go and act like a Japanese tourist in Russia. Remember to say itadakimasu before eating! ^_^

Westerners don't seem to understand that Korean women are on average more attractive than Japanese women--even Japanese men will say so. And China has a much more interesting Imperial, and feudal past than China--they even have their own cool swords and armor.

In East Asian history, Japanese are the primitive pacific-island tier savages. Virtually everything in their culture of any note is just a Chinese import when you examine it closer.

Yes, they've made great movies and media since the 1960's, some of the best in the world, and they're very polite, and amicable people, but there are better places to obsess over .

>Japanese aren't christian
There is a church here called "assembleia de deus nipo-brasileira", literally means nipo-brazilian assembly of god, it is a christian church for japanese descendants.

Christianity has been in japan for a long time, they even celebrate christmas and easter.

They even swap easter eggs man.

Also, are you a Japanese descendant or just a weeabo?

Shinto really isn't a thing. It's just a part of custom rather than a religion.
So you have no problem with practicing both at the same time.
