The Japanese concept of God (Kamisama) differs from ours here in the US. I don't think I have ever heard a Japanese speaker use that term. I am sure that there is some word for it, but I don't know it. Sorry. More likely to hear something about "unmei," or fate.

CHIP: Good literal answer, but it still seems somehow, un-Japanese...know what I mean? Kind of cobbled together to suit Western minds.
