They do not directly conflict on any philosophical or religious tenets, and Shinto followers especially tend to be flexible in their treatment of other religions.

What are Japans 2 major religions?

buddhism and shintoAnswer:This is complicated and depends on what you count as religious affiliation. Many Japanese are "officially" related to a religion because of historic family traditions. On this basis figures that state 84% to 96% of Japanese adhere to Shinto and Buddhism. However when asked directed the majority deny any religious affiliations. 70% of Japanese profess no religious membership and 84% of the Japanese claim no personal religion. Only 15%t reported any formal religious affiliation in a recent census and 64% state that they do not believe in God, and 55% do not believe in Buddha. Some 70% to 80% do not consider themselves believers in any religion.

What is Japans major religion?

In Japan, there are two main religions. These main religions are Shintoism and Buddhism. These two Japanease religions compliment each other, therefor most Japanease are both Shintoist AND Buddhist. Shintoists worship at shrines which are delicate wooden structures often located in the midst of a japanease flower garden. They worship gods similar to how ancient Greeks and Romans worshiped their gods. Nobody knows who was the founder of Shintoism or when exactly it was founded, but it is known that Shintoism is a highly ancient religion. On the other hand Buddhism is also a very ancient religion. People of the Buddhist religion worship at Buddhist Temmples wich are a bit like, from a Christians point of veiw, a Buddhist church. They worship their god Buddha which is also the founder of their religion. He founded their religion close to, or even over a thousand years ago in approximatly 600BC. Today the oldest Buddist Temple stands in Honshu, built in roughly 500BC. As I have mentioned these religions compliment each other explaining why there is a Shrine vertialy next door to the temple. Who knows maybe it was built around the same time as the temple.

What are the three main religions in Japan?

== == The main religion of Japan is Shintoism, which is more accurately described as being a way of living an harmonious life rather than a religion. The second largest religion in Japan is Buddhism, which exists in a slightly different from than elsewhere e.g. Buddhist monks may be married. There a number of different religions in Japan, and it is unusually difficult to come up with percentages of the population that follow each because many followers of Shinto and Buddhism follow both or various aspects of each. Hence the best figures available are that between 84% and 96% are followers of either Shinto or Buddhism, or both to varying degrees; while 4 to 16% follow other beliefs, with Bahai and Christianity being the most common. There is also a small population of Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Sikhs and followers of the Ryukuan religion. There have been Jews in Japan since 1835, and though the nation was allied to Germany during WW2, Japan never accepted the Nazi's recommendations to instigate a "final solution" of their own.
