On this point, the book I quoted from, "A Song for Nagasaki" portrays the "Hidden Christians" in a very favourable light. It was published by a company whose name included the word "Catholic", and I bought it in a Catholic bookstore in Fukuoka (but no, I'm not a Catholic). Maybe there has been some rehabilitation of this, what I have heard is, somewhat offbeat group. Does anyone know? [ I have crossposted this to soc.religion.christian, in case someone there might shared some light on this question ]. --------------------------- David Hawley, ICOT, 4th Lab csnet: hawley%icot.jp@relay.cs.net uucp:{enea,inria,mit-eddie,ukc}!icot!hawley ICOT, 1-4-28 Mita, Minato-ku, Tokyo 108 JAPAN.
