Japanese Christianity For centuries, Japan was the home of Shinto and Buddhist faiths. Christian missionaries in the 16th century, the 19th century, and the 20th century tried to spread the gospel to the Japanese people, but they did not make the desired success. Part of the failure of past efforts was due to sanctions imposed by local rulers. Missionaries of the Jesuits traveled with many Spanish and Portuguese merchants in many parts of America and the Asia Pacific region and established their churches and religious groups. They are funded, sponsored and trained by their respective governments to spread Christianity.
Today there are 3 million Christians from 1 million to Japan, most of which live in the west. And missionary work is the greatest in the 16th century. The proportion of Christians in Nagasaki prefecture was the highest, which was about 5.1% in 1996. As of 2007, there were 32,036 Christian pastors and pastors in Japan. In the last century, Western customs (including western weddings, Valentine's Day, Christmas) that were originally related to Christianity became popular among many Japanese. For example, 60 to 70% of wedding ceremonies in Japan are Christian.
The judge (Issey Ogata) is determined to eradicate Japanese Christianity by afflicting and executing Christians and pastors. If Christians take a step betraying the statue of Christ or exhale Her Virgin on the cross, interrogators usually leave them. People who are refused use various methods including dagger, incineration, drowning. The goal of the judge is a pastor like Ferreira and Rodriguez. They are tortured physically, mentally and psychologically. Foreira was forced to watch because the investigator took off the clothes of other Jesuits arrested in burned water and tortured and killed. The most torture in the movie is a pit hanging. The Japanese bound the victim 's arms and legs, put a small incision behind the ear, and pour head into the pit. What is the focal point of all these? Prove that Christianity does not exist in Japan
