'HIDDEN CATHOLICS' FORM JAPANESE SECRET SECT
By PETER KALISCHER
Japan's only secret Christian sect, the 32.000 so-called "Hidden Catholics,” are today worshipping God in the some furtive way they have employed since the Shogunate drove Christianity under- ground in the 17th century. Seventy-five years after the repeal of Japan's anti-Christian laws and with a Christian prime minister in office, they con- tinue to masquerade as Buddhists and Shintoists, refusing to avow the faith publicly and rarely revealing the secret religion even to each other. Their sabbath rarely coincides without from Nagasaki through which our Sunday, since they are still go-St Francis Xavier and carty Por-. ing by the calendar left them by tuguese, missionaries entered Japan the Portuguese missionaries in 1813.

They deny the Pope in Rome but believe in the Pope in heaven. They, sing Latin hymns but which they don't understand which were passed down nearly 300 years."
Secretivanoss Part of Cult
"They've practised their religion in hilding so long that the cult of secretiveness has become an essen- tial part in their ritual." he said. "They feel the God they worship does not like publicity, so they pray to him at secret shrines hidden in
some corner of their homes."
