I’m not sure about Sugihara in particular, but most Japanese aren’t very religious as such, but have inherited a system of Buddhist and Shinto beliefs and customs.

One can never get enough help from cats. And if you don’t beat, fight back, or surrender, you may as well make peace.

I’d heard about Japan being a haven for some fleeing jews. It’s interesting to hear that it was thanks to a Japanese vice consul acting without authorization. I wonder if Sugihara-san was a Buddhist?

It’s supposed to be the only Frank Zappa memorial in the world. 🙂
Vilnius is a really nice to visit.
