ANdrew! Hi, my name is Hank Hyena and I organized an Atheist Film Festival in San Francisco, now there is a group in Manila, The Philippines, that wants to put on a atheist festival. They want an American atheist there as a guest -- do you want to go? Might be some funding for you. They are Pinoy Athiests, but contact me at info@hankhyena.net

Thanks for writing back. No need to apologize. I am sometimes really late in responding to things. There ARE A LOT of distractions in life these days. That is cool you wanted adventure and just did it. I admire that. I was always much too shy and timid to seize the day, and while I am intellectually very adventurous, that has never translated into action, I'm afraid.

Yeah, their language does seem difficult. In a phonetic language like English, phrases can have visual and auditory similarities, such as I'M hungry, I'M sleepy. But from what I can tell of Japanese, it is not like that. I'm hungry has no grammatical similarities to I'm sleepy.

More than the art, I really like the ancient architectural interiors and gardens -- that kind of minimalism. I'm not wild about their roofs, but I like the heavily geometric, simple, balanced, and spacious interiors. Not wild about the sculpture either. I much prefer Greek, Roman, or Indian sculpture to Japanese, Chinese, Tibetan, or Thai sculpture.

Conichiwa. Welcome to Atheist Nexus Andrew. That is cool you live in Japan. I have become increasingly interested in Japanese history and language over the years. I especially like the eras of feudalism and the samurai culture. They were so disciplined and dignified, for the most part. I watch just about very Japanses samurai film I can get my hands on, especially the older stuff from the 50s - 60s, and even the early 70s. I've seen a good deal of the Kurosawa films, as well. (You can read some of my reviews on them in Atheist Cinema.) I've also spent a little time studying the language, but it is grammatically nothing like English, and I don't really have the time to dedicate to it (as I think to really learn it I must be immersed in it). I'd love to go to Japan one day, if I could. I also like the minimalistic traditional architecture and interiors.

What brought to to Japan to begin with?

Hi
Welcome to Atheist Nexus with its 8800 good friends and discussion groups.
Among the groups, try visiting perhaps the busy group “ORIGINS: Universe, Life, Humans, Evolution, Religion.....” with its commonsense discussions. You will be welcome.
One is "Proud to be Atheist" (74 posts) seeing that atheists and humanists hold the intellectual strong ground compared with the pathetic superstitions of the god followers. Similarly, “Religion is aberrant, atheism is truth” (44 posts).
Terry Meaden (English physicist; archaeologist; Oxford; founder of “Origins”)
