transportation
the NY subway carries an estimate of 4.5 million people a day, the whole system- approximately the population of Norway.
There is a station called Shinjuku in Tokyo about 12 minutes on the Marunochi line from our house. eight lines enter Shinjuku station. 2 million people pass through this one station per day. Thats almost half the amount of people the whole NY system carries , going through 1 station. There are about 12 million people in Tokyo. Tokyo is also part of a Megalopolis- a group of other connecting cities like Yokahama. 1 fourth of Japan's population or 33 million people live in the Greater Tokyo Area.

Types of followers of Christ

question: as far as church events, rituals, religeous practice, etc are concerned, who do they cater to?
