I think it is sad, that "yellowscientist" destroyed a constructive and intelligent debate with his sudden outburst of sinocentric rants. He first says he wants an interesting debte and then not only insults Japan, belittles our great ancestors and myself. Your own history and ancestors may be meaningless. But in Japan we hold highest respect on them. Empress Jingū and Himiko and all others are not just former rulers of our nation. They are Kami. They guard and guide Japan. They formed Japan and they formed me. My life and evrything i know is based on decissions they made. Japan now is the result of their thinking, their combined achievement. It is the product of a process that spanned over many thousand years. Evry japanese participated in it in history. Some had small influence like a local farmer. Some forged great parts of it like Empress Jingū or Oda Nobunaga. I and all Japanese have greatest respect for them. It is something you may never understand. It is not just religious or traditions it fills Japan down to our pop culture.
