Don't know where you'd hear that. I spent 18 months in Japan back eon years ago and they are people of faith. There are Buddiasm, Christians, Shinto and other religions.

They all believe in some form of religion even if it isn't what we may practice.

We all have our own way of getting to God.

Even if some were not it does not mean they would not appreciate our prayers.

Put whatever label you feel comfortable to put on. That label alone will be a witness to them that God is helping them out even if it is in a quilt made for them.
