KAROSHI word for death due overwork. Japan is famous for its productivity making it a very rich nation. But what is the real cost of this relentless devotion to companies and the economy? What happens to families, marriages and health when the job comes first? OMF wants to plant a network of churches across Japan to reveal the true meaning of life, with all its fullness.

  • Cool...hopefully this video will inspire more Japanese to convert to Christianity and preach "sin" in their society. Seems to do a lot of good in Western countries... :)

  • If faith in God is helping these people cope with the stresses in their lives then I see nothing wrong with this. Whatever works.

  • @kiwisunshine5233

    agree 100%.

  • @dmari2083 and so says the americans the most fucked up and hated country in the world

  • what a sick society

  • @kiwisunshine5233 Exactly! As soon as I heard religion being introduced as a solution, this video lost all credibilty. Ridiculous to say the least

  • Churches trying to take advantage of emotionally unstable overworked stressed out people again. Religion does not change their working hours and their situation, that can be worked out through secular means. The "true meaning of life" does not exist, it is subjective and any valid meaning of life is not based on believing in a magical being that doesn't even exist.
