“Matsunaga [a Japanese catechism] was not right to speak against Buddhism and insult it; we shouldn’t do that in our sermons. It is our business to instruct in the Christian teaching. When it will become understood, then Buddhism will be renounced by itself. Arguing against it too early will only close the path to Christianity in the hearts of many listeners, anger them and provoke them to fight it.”
(St. Nicholas of Japan) [Missions; Prudence; Evangelism]
