You know what would be funny? Dropping anonymous tips to the police that random churches are housing illegal immigrants.
You mean doing the things their religion is supposed to?
How about we drop anonymous tips that random churches hide child molestation instead?

Yes am I unaware of a strange way of displaying these metrics or did they just add the % sign for no reason?
i'm pretty confident (p<0.05) they just added a % for no real reason.

Fuck proselytizing religions. No, I won't join your stupid fucking cult. Fuck right off.
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.

Evangelical brain rot

Judging from the rest of the post, the person probably has issues with maths.

Yeah, but those other stats are raw numbers. Okay, we have a higher number of unhoused people and food-insecure people, but we also have a higher number of people, period. If you wanna make a point, it has to be per capita. I like how the first stat got this right, but the others did not.
US population: ~350M
Japan population: ~125MNot even 3x as much.

Fuck all religion. No I donāt want to reject reality to play make believe.
It's part of capitalism as well.

According to this, per 10,000 people:
- Japan: 0.2
- US: 19.5
https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/homelessness-by-country
.2% per year? So we should expect about 10% of people to be murdered by 50?
I was going to say .2% is better than I thought, but thatās pretty dire.

If you measure the us conviction rate the same way the commonly quoted 99% conviction rate in Japan is calculated ours is actually higher.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conviction_rate scroll down to the Japan entry for the source. Sorry don't know how to link it directly lol
Japan is just gaming the numbers here. Both with the conviction rate and with the homeless ratio.
https://www.examiner.org.hk/2025/01/17/the-invisible-homeless-in-japan/features/
According to this link, if you apply western metrics, Japan would have between 100k and 200k homeless. Which would mean Japan has 81.2-162.4 homeless per 100k inhabitants, while the USA has 221.7.
That would make Japan a bit better than the USA, but it's not that much of a difference any more.

Fuck that too!

This part of 'what your bible says about murder and poor people' makes it sound like the writer of the response believes it's causational but i think they were just offended and not trying to make a scientifically sound argument. And i would understand that.
It's almost racist because of how the first post makes Christianity sound like something superior. As if the Japanese being different in their believe makes them less.
also wouldn't it make complete sense for Japan to have way less Christians since they were isolated for so long and have their own religious beliefs
Exactly this. Although Japanese rulers haven't always been very peaceful, their culture is known for being caring and respectful towards others where as Americans are by many people seen as loud and obnoxious (also positive things, but i'm not trying to make a comparison between two cultures as a whole), making this comment about Japanese adoption of Christianity not only come across as ignorant but also very arrogant.

Many people try to make Japan sound perfect, but they have a lot of problems:
https://archive.ph/0IoIQJapan lacks any law which prohibits racial, ethnic, or religious discrimination.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karoshi
Of course still not as bad as the US, but I don't it is because of religion, it is more because of the two party system. Look at Singapore 18% Christians and they don't have that many problems.
In the end I believe most problems in all countries are because of human nature, not religion. Religion is just one of the excuses they use for the horrible things they commit.

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.

Given the confluence of weeb culture and the alt-right (think incels and ātraditionalistsā with anime avatars, right-wing gamers pointing to Japan as a high-tech conservative utopia untouched by wokeness and such), it was inevitable that sooner or later someone would try to imagine a Japan that goes to Latin Mass.

0.2 people, not percentage. That was what they were trying to straighten out because percent per 100k doesn't make sense.

I am aware, but the difference in people's view of Japanese people and people from US is astounding.
Agree with you and comment above, I don't believe there is causation. Two system is surely not helping to make US peaceful.
