Conclusion

Research Proposal

There are many people who celebrate Christmas with cakes, chickens, and presents in Japan. Many Japanese people spent with families, friends, particular girlfriend or boyfriend. It is strange that Japanese traditional religion is Shinto and day of Christmas is for celebrating to born Jesus Christ.
This paper will try to explain how did Christmas established in Japan and reasons why Christmas could establish in non-Christian country moreover Japanese traditional religion is Shinto and only very few people is Christian.I believe that Christmas is established by reasons of business not religious reasons. This means that many companies utilized Christmas as a means to make big benefits.
