 Major Religions Ranked by Size
This list is based primarily on the degree of doctrinal/theological similarity among all the various sub-groups which belong to these classifications, and to a lesser extent based on diversity in practice, ritual and organization.
People who specify atheism as their religious preference actually make up less than one-half of one percent of the population in many countries where much large numbers claim no religious preference, such as the United States (13.2% nonreligious according to ARIS study of 2001) and Australia (15% nonreligious).
Finally, a larger number of people answer "none" or "non-religious" when asked asked an open-ended queston about what their religious preference is. Although figures vary for each country, average numbers indicate that roughly half of the people who self-identify as "nonreligious" also answer "yes" when asked if they believe in God or a Higher Power.

 The Miyazaki Mailing List - FAQ
Japanese animation fandom, as with many other special-interest communities, began as small, isolated groups of people who got in touch over the Internet and gradually connected with similar groups all over the United States and around the world.
While it might seem natural for people in the animation industry to subscribe to a mailing list about animation, this list is of particular interest because of the respect animators generally have for the inspirational works of Hayao Miyazaki.
As stated in the Overview, this mailing list is for discussion of the films, studio, and colleagues of Hayao Miyazaki, a writer, director, and producer of Japanese animated films.

Japanese newsgoups are the Japanese equivalent of Usenet News, and the two letters fj (meaning "from Japan") begin the name of each newsgroup.
It is sometimes difficult to get a feed of Japanese newsgroups outside of Japan, and some people do not even have access to news reader software, so it has been made available as a mailing list.
Like the NIHONGO Mailing List, it is intended for people who do not have access to Usenet News, and all posts to the mailing list are cross-posted to the Usenet News newsgroup version.

 World-famous wacky Japanese T-shirts from J-List!
The Japanese phrase ippiki okami (ee-PEE-KEE OH-kah-mee) literally means "lone wolf," and refers to individuals in society who refuse to become part of the larger group, instead preferring to find their own path in life and ignore society's accepted norms.

M.J. says of boso, busu, and musu: "All of them what muttered sulky Japanese sounds like--'bananas bananas' said through the nose, so to speak; because you don't complain out loud." (see also busu, guzu, gyaa, musu)
We usually translate this as 'eh?' although the Japanese 'e?' is less colloquial and informal than the Western 'eh?'
