The article only mentions the fact that 4.52 percent of the population is Christian. What about the other 95 percent? I am not familiar with this region of Japan, and the specifics of the relgious diversity are unknown to me.--[[User:DMeyering|Dave]] 00:02, 19 April 2006 (UTC) |

:agreed, as it stands the religion section might as well be called "Christianity". Which is bizarre if only 4.5 percent of the population is Christian. --[[Special:Contributions/86.137.152.133|86.137.152.133]] ([[User talk:86.137.152.133|talk]]) 14:59, 18 December 2007 (UTC) |

Christian belief statement
I feel that the statement "the Christian belief in equality between men" undermines the neutrality of this article. It is patently obvious to many that Christian missionaries in this area had no such beliefs and often used violent methods to force conversions. The statement also implies that contemporary Japanese attitudes on equality were somehow inferior to Christianity's, ratehr than being different. Pedantic I know, but I still feel it needs to be said.
About Nagoya
The article contains the statement, "Nagoya(not to be confused with Nagoya, Aichi) was located in the prefecture before." Does anyone have any information about this? It links to Nagoya, Nagasaki but that redirects to Nagoya, Saga. I think it belongs in Saga, but perhaps at one time it was in Nagasaki? Fg2 07:09, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Religion
The article only mentions the fact that 4.52 percent of the population is Christian. What about the other 95 percent? I am not familiar with this region of Japan, and the specifics of the relgious diversity are unknown to me.--Dave 00:02, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
