They might have Bibles... Those Gideons really get around.
Shinto don't spread their "word",, and Non-Japanese are not supposed to take part of Shinto at all.
A Shinto temple doesn't exist to teach people the faith, or minister to them, it is built to honor a Kami. The priests do that without an audience..
Japan is very secular, and most Japanese say they are Agnostic when asked about religion. However, I saw a lot of well-maintained Shinto temples,, and new ones on top of office buildings. That's an awful lot of shrines to religion no one practices any more.
