Literally 5.7 per 100 per 100,000.
Neither had cake nor ate it
As soon as you get to the "per 100" part you can stop. After that, it doesn't matter if it's per 100,000, per 8,759,016, or per 10.
So the fact that they mixed up something so basic makes you question the number entirely. Their point is valid, but undermined by their lack of basic math skills.

Your unhoused numbers are wrong. Those are the official "sleeping on the streets" numbers, which is not the same thing. First because they're official, and therefore almost certainly undercounting, and second because they exclude all of the situations where people don't have houses but are kinda not exactly in a cardboard box.
To be fair though it’s the ones living on the street that people choose to hate on as much as possible

Fuck all religion. No I don’t want to reject reality to play make believe.
I can hear your avatar.

To be fair there is also the suicide rate.
Also what the fuck were they expecting, Japan to be some Christian paradise?

I've lived in three different major Japanese cities and see fewer people sleeping rough in a year than I can see in an hour in either Europe or the US.
Sleeping Rough != Homeless though. Granted, almost everyone who sleeps rough is homeless, but not every homeless sleeps rough. Japan only counts people sleeping rough as homeless though.
Also there's the element of being seen sleeping rough. There are plenty of people sleeping rough out there, but they don't want to be seen that way so they keep to themselves and stay away from the general public, getting across the idea that there aren't many of them.

Don't target the immigrant neighborhood's churches, hit the rural ones 4 hours away from any major city. Just imagine the ice gestapo sending a convoy of agents out that far and getting nothing.
Even if you choose the whitest most conservative church in the county, ICE will collect the brown person who cleans up after the white folks. And anyone else who tries to defend them, but I'm not sure if any would.

Hey, we at least tried to convert them, but nobody congratulates Portugal for that.
If anyone's interested in that time period, James Clavell's excellent Shogun novel is set a few decades into the process. (Before the shogunate rose into power, banned Christianity and massacred tens of thousands of Christian converts

Never mind that, what does "07% per 100K" even mean? As far as I can tell that evaluates to 0.0000007 or 7 per 10 million

Look it's cool that you're in a philosophical moral club, but don't go around defending religion by calling yourself a religion and saying 'look at me as an example of a good religion' when you don't actually hold religious/supranatural beliefs.
And if you do hold such beliefs, don't claim you accept reality.
You know, you can just say "supernaturalism" instead of "religion". The two are not synonymous. You can have religion without supernaturalism, such as non-theistic Satanism and some forms of Buddhism. You can have supernaturalism without religion, which describes many New-Agers. I'm sure you've heard people say "I'm spiritual, but not religious", and that's what they mean by that. There are people who believe in souls and reincarnation and stuff like that, but they don't have a religion built around it.
In the case of non-theistic Satanism, there is a moral code, a set of beliefs, and a community of people with shared values, as well as holidays and rituals. Just nothing supernatural.

Some people are shockingly stupid, even though I've spent my entire life finding out how stupid people can be.
I worked in retail for a decade, and have been in IT for past 12 years. Mostly help desk. Mostly medical.
The advanced degrees these people have is astounding, but the lack of common sense is terrifying.
Like, these people are cutting into other people to fix shit? They can't tie their own shoes, and the concept of a power button on a computer is too much.
This is the same person. Hopefully he has retired or died by now, cause those were his only real choices at that age.
Seriously, his assistant tied his shoes for him. She probably had advanced degrees of her own. And she had to tie an old man's shoes on the daily.
Maybe there something to have such a laser focus like medicine specialties really does rob people of their common sense.
Tie? Shoe? No, but that artery is about to retract or some shit.

US population: ~350M
Japan population: ~125MNot even 3x as much.
You're not wrong. I'm just saying, if you want to make that point, you should compare per capita.

We dont need to improve the world, we just need to get you to say you to validate our taste in shitty fiction. That's more important.

Talk all the shit you want about how people twist the meanings of the book/religion, there are some very good stories in the Bible.

Assuming it's .07% and not 7% since the latter wouldn't make sense with their post, that would make it 70 out of 100,000.

a simple math says: 0.7/100*100 000 = 0.7 * 1 000 = 700
so, 700 on 100k people -

To those prepared to reply with "but that's not what it is", I'm not saying it is.
