correlation is not causation, the reason why they have less murders is probably not Christianity (for example they have way stricter gun control)
edit: after rereading the post I don’t think the other person is tryng to argue that Christianity is causing murder and whatnot, so ignore above paragraph
also wouldn’t it make complete sense for Japan to have way less Christians since they were isolated for so long and have their own religious beliefs
The Moonies are so wacky that calling them “Christian” is a stretch. Definitely not aligned with the Nicene creed, and I think once the founder/prophet claims some sort of divinity it’s better to refer to as Christian derived.

Also, Christianity was banned for quite awhile.
A Japanese guy used a 3d printed gun to undermine a christian cult in Japan.
