Well, even though that might be true for some, the original religion of Japan is Buddhism. Christianity (was known as "Kiristian" then) was despised. Anyone found wearing a cross was killed. There's an equal possibility that she's not Christian.

As for Roman Catholics, no offense to them, but they are not considered Christians. God says, "Thou shalt not make thyself a graven image...thou shalt not have any god before me, for I myself am a jealous God." Catholics pray to other things besides God.

Catholicism also has the "confession" time, where the 'father' of the church forgives them for their sins. No man can forgive sin, only God can do that. I do not mean any offense, for I have accepted other religions along with my own. This is regular knowledge, so if I offended anyone with this, I'm so sorry!
