Pointless drivel as usual. lol.

This was more of an observation really. Yesterday was Monday here in Japan and I had the day off and my son had the day off from school. We went to the local Shinto shrine to take our annual picture for my Facebook banner.

We came home around lunch time and I was surprised at how many salary men in large groups were making their way to the shrine. Supposedly, 80% of Japan claims to be agnostic or atheist. Tradition and doing what the group does is the golden rule in Japan, but I just wonder why they still do it if not that many people actually believe anymore.
