"The Lost Sheep of the House of Israel"



(30 or 40 Miles Far from Tokyo)



One of the books I recently purchased is the one written by a lawyer and his client who was falsely charged with a horrible crime 17 years or so ago when the DNA analysis technology was immature in Japan.

The innocent victim was recently released from a prison due to a new proof based on the latest DNA examination.

(http://www.kadokawa.co.jp/book/bk_detail.php?pcd=200907000291 )

But, it was a woman, a stranger to him, rather than lawyers that decisively helped and supported the innocent victim forced to make a false confession by the police who blindly relied on a wrong DNA test result, since she had been also a bus driver for kindergartners and could not believe that the innocent victim of the same profession could murder a young child.

So, any advanced technology must be handled carefully with the fear of God.


SECTION I: IT Industry Competitiveness Index

They ranked Japan as No.2 for 2007 in terms of IT industry competitive edge.

But, they ranked Japan as No.12 for 2008.

Could it be possible while Lehman Brothers and GM failed in 2008?

---------
Japan has suffered the steepest drop among the index countries—from 2nd to 12th—also largely due to changes in its R&D and patents scores. This is also the case with South Korea, which fell from 3rd to 8th, and has much to do with a refinement of our methodology for assessing patents (see "About the index" below, and Appendix 1.)

Anyway, the IT technology is a kind of weapons to be used not only by the police and military but also criminals and terrorists.

---------
One area where western Europe has taken an international lead is in addressing cybercrime. The Convention on Cybercrime, a treaty drawn up by the Council of Europe in 2001, aims to harmonise national laws on cybercrime and to improve co-operation between countries. The majority of European Union (EU) members are now signatories to the Convention, as are several non-EU countries, including the US, Canada, Japan and South Africa.

G7 nations must lead the world in this field.


SECTION II: Christianity and Technology

No matter how much Europeans and Americans have developed technology and weapons as major application of technologies, it is expected that they can be contained by the teaching of Christianity even in the worst case of their harming people and the nature (except the case of Nazis on European Judaists and of the USSR on insurgent Christians).

But, as for Japan, there is some doubt about such inhibition mechanism.

It is so since modern technology is mostly based on Christianity (and the ancient Mediterranean and Mesopotamian civilizations).

And, that is why Japan had to suffer the lost decade, in terms of GDP, in 1990's, while its potential of technological invention was as strong as that of the U.S.

In order to restrain Japanese businesses from harming souls and minds of the Japanese people as well as the nature and the land, the Japanese economy had to be halted and prevented from applying technology in an ever increasing scale without religious restriction.

It is other aspect of truth of the lost decade of Japan, in terms of GDP, in 1990's.

(As for China, Western religion-rooted socialism and Marxism in their backbone can constrain them even in the worst case scenario of Chinese expansion to peripheral regions leveraging their hi-tech weapons.)

So, it is no wonder that Japan is leading the world today in development of environment-friendly technology, since it is the major, if hidden, theme in 1990's, the era called the lost decade.

Mat 10:5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:

Mat 10:6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Mat 10:7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
