Shinto
yes but sometimes no
The religion Shinto comes from Japan! It is thought to be old as Japan itself! There are no founders of Shinto! They believe in something called Kami!
Shinto has no writtings! Followers of Shinto believe in Kami! Kami (there equivalent to a god) are spirits that take the form of such things as rain, wind, rivers and mountains!
Shintoism is primarily practiced in Japan.
They believe in many Gods
Shinto is indeginous to Japan, therefore it has many believer's within Japan, but there are a select handful who follow this faith, living outside Japan.
There are 2.7 million Shinto followers in the world today. : ) Technicaly there is 2. 9 million because most people that follow shintoism are also buddist. {-_-} (_@_)
