Reply to comment by AngusLynch09 in TIL that during the Edo period in Japan Catholicism was outlawed and groups of Japanese catholics had secret rooms in their houses and they made statues of the Virgin Mary and other saints that would look like Buddhist statues by jeanleonino
I'm not sure how true it is but apparently prior to the ban catholicism was growing at a very rapid rate in japan, to the point every province had a catholic population of some kind. So I guess if you assume this would continue for some time, Japan would end up having a sizeable catholic population.

Oh sweet nice to know that some of you guys also use the 'correct' term lol. I didn't know it was from a brand name though, I assumed it's because the water kind of 'bubbles' up.

People don't just abandon their old national/ethnic identities after immigrating.
