   And now we got Christian elements added to the mix too.
   Especially in marriage.
   It's not uncommon to be born the Shinto way, marry the Christian way, and die the Buddhist way.

     I have described Japan for a long time as being more "perennialist" than most countries. One example of that is how for quite a while it has been a culture where Buddhism and Shinto can coexist with no conflict at all and people are willing to get value out of both without committing exclusively to one or the other.
