Kami

All natural objects and phenomena used to be considered as having kami, so the gods of Shinto were uncountably numerous.

Maybe, the Japanese animistic belief in the "kami"—spirits, souls, and gods ubiquitous in nature—facilitates the incorporation of Jesus Christ. Some Hindus in India believe that Jesus Christ was one of the incarnations of Vishnu.

More than seven decades after the big war, Japanese still do not tend to Christianity. I think that Japan's Shintoism is like India's Hinduism. These religions just absorb foreign elements. Some Hindus believe that Jesus Christ was an incarnation of Vishnu. He may be one of the "kami" in Shintoism.

According to Shinto, at the death of a person, there are several possible destinations: in the young life far beyond the ocean, in the invisible astral world, in the underworld, or in the mountains to watch out for family survivors. In Shinto, the notion exists that a person may become a "kami." There are many "kami," and they are sometimes called "kamigami." Sometimes, the Japanese call God "Kami-sama." Often, "kami" also means spirits or souls, not just gods.
