Well Japan is a country with a good sense of liberalism (generally), a wonderful and interesting history, great theology and a good film industry.
I do, however, object to the Japanese whaling industry.

In truth, you have love-hate feelings about the West. You may think we are unrefined and too permissive, but you want to look like us.
