The correct answer is option 3, Shintoism. Shintoism is a Japanese folk tradition and ritual that has no founder or single sacred scripture. It is a native religion of Japan and is deeply rooted in Japanese culture and history. Shintoism focuses on the worship of nature and ancestral spirits, and it emphasizes purity and cleanliness. It involves various rituals and practices, including shrine visits, prayers, and purification ceremonies. Shintoism is characterized by its belief in the kami, which are divine spirits that inhabit all things in nature. These spirits are worshipped and respected in various shrines across Japan. Unlike some other religions, Shintoism is not centralized and does not have a stringent set of doctrines or rituals.
