This project has done with the object of taking a public opinion poll on a matter of Japanese religious consciousness and attitudes synthetically. Scholors on religious study have never taken the public opinion poll since the world war II.The target we took is the Japanese consciousness and attitudes toward religious bodies. In 1995 OUM-SHINEIKYO acted a terrorism. Many Japanese were shocked by the terrorism and held the antipathy against the religious bodies. So we want to measure the present state. The public opinion poll we took also contains the matter of the Japanese religious consciousness and attitudes.We found three matters. First of all most Japananese showed strong anipathy against religious bodies. This tendency has been getting strong. For the second. most Japanese didn't do the religious matters. For example, going shrines, going temples, bazzar by churches etc. We found that most japanese didn't know concrete religious bodies. But the antipathy against religious bodies are quite strong.At last we found the strong effect of massmedia over the Japanese.
