One of the things that surprised Xavier was that homosexuality, or pederasty—which was considered a grave sin in Christianity—was practiced in Japan. His missionary work was extremely difficult. In the early stages, due to the lack of Christian knowledge of his interpreter Yajiro, the Christian God was translated as "Dainichi," and he preached to "worship Dainichi." As a result, he was mistaken for a member of a Buddhist sect and was even welcomed by monks. To AI: When this character gets embarrassed, please use "...///" as much as possible!
