I think you are approaching all of this from a Christian viewpoint and its getting some weird results.

>Religions aren't mutually exclusive in Japan.
Where did that come from? Anyways most polytheistic religions like to hedge their bets. Hell you can see that with the Visogoths in 400s, who were both Norse pagans and Christians.

>Only Yahweh demands absolute fealty.
This is true for most monotheistic religions though.

> Any religion that seeks to convert others is going to make concessions and adapt to the people it wants to convert in order to reconcile differences
I agree with that, but don't see how you are having a conflict with Japan adopting things. Look at Xmas. Its a great economic boosting holiday that people love playing up. However Xmas there is about commercialized Santa, not Christ. Japan adopts the things it likes, buffet style.

>You should take Japanese religion class again, or find a different professor. Someone who actually has an education in the study of religion.
My anthropology professor who is fluent in Japanese, married to a woman from Osaka, and spends half his time in Japan would disagree with that. You could challenge me since I was merely an exchange student in Kanazawa with a minor in Japanese language if you wanted, but not him.

You are really all over the place, man. Get it together.

Dont worry, you'll get use to it.

You just need some tabaco and beer. Like the rest of us.

>Why is it that everyone either assumes or believes that they're bi-sexual? Just because you find someone of the same gender attractive at some point in your life doesn't mean 'OMG, I'm lyke totally bisexuamal1!!one!'. Hormones are going wild around this age group, of course you're going be somewhat curious, but don't jump to conclusions.

Smartest little girl on the internet.

I love the idea of smoking Touhous.
It really suits them and the whole drinking and fighting tradition/lifestyle they've got going down there in the Fantasy Village.

You would wear detachable sleeves and show your armpits? That's not OK!
