Hidden Christians

Hidden Christians Since Japan's rulers outlawed Christianity in the sixteenth century, believers have hidden their faith. But what began as Christianity has evolved into something quite different.
The 'hidden Christians' worship not one but two Virgin Marys. The religion survived because Buddhist priests turned a blind eye, allowing people to ostensibly embrace Buddhism while remaining clandestine Christians. "We don't expel them or tell them to quit their faith."
