I love Japan! (Religion bashing included!)

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

If any of you have checked out my journal http://kevinrich.livejournal.com you know that I've found very little to complain about here in my new home. Today, I thought I'd found something. The Jehovas' Witnesses came to my door. I had planned to give them "the full Dawkins," but I didn't really want to upset the two cute japanese women standing at my door. So I just told them that I was an Atheist and was very happy in my beliefs. They smiled, thanked me, and left.

No speech! No hellfire! No condemnation! Just a smile and a thanks!

I've been told, and I'm having no trouble believing, that religion here is not like it is in the west. It's more of a hobby to its practicioners.
