MODERN JAPAN.

Modern Japan, says recent writer,
harbors strange mixture of beliefs
and tendencies. Every shade and
stripe, of unbelief may be found
skepticism, agnosticism, materialism,
and atheism, rung through all their
changes, each dressed in the garb of
Science, and all together contending
stubbornly with the old polytheistic
and pantheistic faith as well as with
Christianity. The real conflict that
Christianity has before it in Japan is
essentially the same which it has to
wage in Europe and America, theism
against pantheism and agnosticism
Buddhism is waning. It has 264 fewer
temples in 1908 than it had in 1904
and ESQ fewer priests. The Shinto
shrines have lost still more
