This book was very interesting for me. I’ve already read some books about history of Japanese religions and immigrants from other parts of the world. The Author, Ken Joseph and Ken Joseph Jr. explained how our history education has had a lot of lack in teaching religion of Japan, and the people of Japan.
We Japanese learn that Buddhism always was the only leading religion in Japan although Shinto has been an original Japanese religion since the country was formed. And the first Christianity in Japan was brought by Francisco Xavier from Portugal back in 1549.
But it’s not true at all. As we search for the history, we almost knew that Christianity and some kind of Judaism had already arrived soon after the coutnry of Japan was formed by the people from Israel and Assyria called HATA clan.
Ken Joseph Jr. investigated the real history of Japan’s religion and he found many facts which have apparently been hidden for a long time in Japanese history study. And he gives us some hints to find the real history of ours.
He seems to be a descendant of the lost country, Assyria. But he says that Japan surely has the influence from Assyria and Israel in the old time of Japan because they came to Japan through Silk Road in the ancient time. So he is proud of himself as a Japanese . He says Japanese people consist of various nations but it’s not taught now, and nobody in Japan knows that fact.
After reading this book, I again got sure image about old Japan and the origin of our blood. Ken’s questions to Japan are all clear and simple. But they are all heavy questions with his straight attitude to the investigation. Indeed they are all taboo questions in Japan among Japanese looking Japanese people. Ken’s questions are all very important and probably his answers for them are also nearly correct.
This book is written in Japanese language. If you are OK, I recommend this book for new awakening of the facts which have long been hidden by unknown reasons.
