    Not even sure what year this is from cause the murder rate in Japan is .23% per 100,000 as of 2022.

    Interestingly the United States is at 5.7% per 100,000 as of 2023.

    Relevant Wikipedia article:

    ~~https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate~~

    And as of 2022 it looks like the Christian population of Japan has declined to around .96% of the total population.

    Edit: That Wikipedia article may have been written by ChatGPT cause the actual total number of homicides in all of Japan in 2022 was 853.

        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.

          Admittedly, ignorance respects no particular faith. That said, Christianity does seem to have quite the stranglehold on it.

          I don't view christianity as a real religion tbh. Maybe way back when it was but nowadays it's just a way for fragile suburbanites to justify their victim complex and bigotry.

                          That's what you have to use because they have fewer people per capita. It's basic math.

                            That's because you see more of them. Or at least what passes for christian in the US. Rest assured that the others are more than keeping pace.

                                But usually, you have total numbers per 100k and that's the percents. % is parts of hundred, no matter what.

                                  Yes, there just shouldn't be a percentage sign. It's not a percentage. The value is probably around 5 something per 100k.

                                    The weird thing is that they're supposed to be Korean, and they're historically not fond of one another. But then, anything to make a buck yen.

                                      I don't view christianity as a real religion tbh. Maybe way back when it was but nowadays it's just a way for fragile suburbanites to justify their victim complex and bigotry.

                                      I would specify that the views and practices of modern religious have probably diverged to a very likely large extent from that of their founding predecessors, but I’d also imagine those same predecessors also used religion to justify their victim complexes and bigotries. The two groups, separated by many thousands of years, seem to have much the same underlying mentalities.

                                        Wait, wait, wait.

                                        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.

                                        but the stories! The poetry!

                                        They're not that good, though. Some of them sorta stand up as mediocre. Compare them to an anthology by, like, le'guinn, known more as a novelist who could maintain consistent characters plot themes and tone for the length of a fucking novel. You know who fucking wins.
