There are those who speak ill of others. They slander the Shinto and Buddhist religions. Imagine having children of which one became a Buddhist monk, one a Christian reverend, one a Shinto priest, another a government official, one a craftsman, and another a merchant. If someone slandered one of your children, would you, as a parent, feel happy?
When slandering others, you do not reflect Kami's heart. Buddha, Christ or any other founder of a religion are all Kami's beloved children.
