Afer all, their fertility rate is the worst in the world and they also have one of the highest suicide rates on the planet.

"The Bible may be your holy book, but *Katana Mastery For Dummies* is my holy book"

**"I HAVE THE POWER OF GOD AND ANIME ON MY SIDE!"**

It’s possible to have a strong cultural identity and be an economic power without being ruled by Abrahamic religion, but you need a very strong IQ, homogeneous non-brown population, like Japan or Iceland.

i would say a big reason for both of that is their obsession with work

The only thing that saves them is being isolated from the rest of the world by being on an island.

Germany and the other European countries will not be atheist for very much longer, because they will be ruled by Islam.

And they won't be German, Swedish, or any of the nationalities they were before.

Having a strong, religious core is important for having a strong, healthy nation.

Here here!

Agreed

Down with sinners

Up with christ

Religion (whether worship of God or the state) is essential to having an orderly society if you don’t have a high IQ population.

Poor people and vagrants need the fear of God to keep them in line, otherwise the system descends into anarchy and degeneracy, like America and the UK.

No, it's not necessarily the fear of God, but the understanding of right and wrong, which comes from the authority of God.

If you understand right and wrong, society can govern itself without the need of the state.

In every successful society, the higher classes are usually less religious and prone to vice, but it balances out because they contribute the most. A poor person who is not intelligent won’t care about right or wrong, even if he knows the difference, because bad behavior will grant him more instant gratification.

That’s where the threat of being assfucked by demons in hell for all of eternity comes in.

Religion keeps people in line and gives them incentives not to degenerate society.

Needs more threat of being assfucked by right wing death squads

Also isnt Japan Shinto Buddhist and Cristian? How anyone can even begin they are atheists is beyond me. Their New Year traditons include going to a temple to pray then there is tanabata.

Shinto, buddhist, and a small population of Christians

They may not be religious but when it comes to superstitions a d spirituality the place is second to like maybe the vatican

also they straight up love western holidays (though they dont' celebrate the religious aspects, unless they *are* religious)

Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's, and Easter (i don't think it is as big though)

Christmas is winter nookie time

they love Christmas

to be fair if you dont love christmas you must be satanspawn

Like their Christmas shit rivals any western country

From what Ive seen

yes

and like in the US they have a lot of christmas songs

Most of Japan is non-Christian.

But Christmas has been kinda adopted by basically every culture

They still mostly believe in dieties and the supernatural. Im pretty sure atheist includes all spiritual and religious belief systems not just the ones with jesus.

Pretty sure Korea would be a better pick to start to claim that theyre athiests

They're not atheist, just not Christian. Most Japanese are Shinto and/or Buddhist

More than half of Koreans are Christian, somewhat more Protestant than Catholic

North Korea?

I thought you meant South
