Same in China, it's more of a cultural tradition than a religious one
yeah, and China has it damn right cracking down on the serious religions
like the ones where you have to believe sky daddy told you to kill people
I think they should be treated like cults
we have christians up the street and they think that because I'm white I'm religious or something and they like invite me to easter parties and stuff
But for "us" the existence of the Christian God is basically just an accepted fact of nature
is it? I never grew up in a religious environment and I have a history of a big chunk of my family being wiped out from that.
Like my Chinese family they call themselves nonreligious but they still believe in God
aah like spiritualism
yeah none of that here
I meant us as in my Chinese family
right
in Japan it's just so perhipheral, it's more or less just the feeling, like even if you go to a shrine and buy a charm they'll say "It's not the charm that makes it happen, the charm is a symbol and reminder for you to make it happen"
Sounds very Catholic
I wouldn't know, not very versed on Catholisism
I had a strange upbringing I guess
We have all sorts of trinkets
I like that kind of religious culture
charms and stuff
I have a 神棚 right behind me, it's a little shrine made of wood that you store charms in
I have a wooden cross made in the holy land
aah, we have a ceramic mesuza from Israel... but we have a metal door frame so we can't put it up 😄
dunno if we would though
and we don't have the fillament you put inside either
anyway, gotta run, lunch time
Later bro
you have a nice [inset time of day in your time zone]
Ragnarok are you a half Nam?
No
I'm all white American, my wife is native born Chicom

@Ƶero i swear the commotion with that japanese guy getting captured feels like its something coming straight outta a japanese game show
What's the deal with Japanese game shows. They're all weird, and there's a lot of them
that's normal
Actually most game shows here are boring as fuck. The ones everyone seems to refer to are the ones that Beat Takeshi or Tunnels did
and those were basically pranks more or less
the only really fucked up stuff on Japanese TV is the stuff that Terry and his crew did. That guy is twisted. I can see how some people would like his stuff but I just find it mind numbing and weird.
Well but y'all had that one show where they get in a porta potty and it's actually an elevating platform that goes up and the walls collapse
watch Chinese cartoons
