references that appear in the writing.Heritage is defined as the inherited traditions and
cultures that a group of individuals practices. All communities in the world have their
heritage of identifying themselves. Japan is among communities with a rich cultural
heritage. Another community with a rich heritage is the Jews. Both the Jews and the
Japanese originated from different parts of the world. The Japanese culture is like the one in
Asian society. It is mostly characterized by innovations and a firm boundary of culture that
originates from ancient times(Munro, 2016).Jews came from Europe and settled on the
coast of the Atlantic while the Japanese came from Asia and settled on the Pacific coast. Jews
and the Japanese have different religious beliefs. The Jews were a monotheistic religion
where God expected them to obey His commandments. Religion was their identity element
in their collective self-identity. The Japanese, on the other hand, had a polytheistic way of
life that was oriented by nature. Their religion gave room for several spiritual faiths and had
some demands. The Japanese could adopt Shinto or Buddhism under different
circumstances without affecting their self-collectiveness (Pol & Thomas, 2012).ORDER
NOW FOR ORIGINAL, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPERSThe majority of the Jews today follow the
western Gregorian calendars apart from when they are celebrating their religious
ceremonies where they follow the traditional Jewish calendar. In Japan, when the calendar
of the west was adopted, all holidays moved back by one and a half months, and there were
no witnessed protests. When the Japanese and the Jews adopted western culture, they did
not embrace Christianity, but they rejected the Western religion due to various factors. Jews
rejected Christianity because adopting it would mean abandoning their Jewish people and
betraying their families and friends. The Japanese, on the other hand, rejected Christianity
because religion was not very essential for them; thus, they had no reason to adopt a new
faith, which would limit them from worshipping their gods. Jews in America did not change
their Judaism religion. At the same time, the Japanese in America adopted the faith of their
host country because the same way they would worship a local Deity in Japan. Jews had the
tradition of living in foreign countries and moving from one place to another. Jews did not
arrive in the United States from their country as the Japanese did; they were from another
land they referred to as exile. The Japanese lived in a sovereign and independent
state(Munro, 2016).The two heritage have some cultural beliefs which influence the

innovation. This has enabled them to develop vital technologies of treatments. Due to their
innovation and their advancement in technology, many foreigners visit their health care
facilities. They are also accepting foreign candidates to study nursing in Japan. It has
developed into a global society with culturally competent nursing care, which is growing
more and more vital in the world. Nurses who study and practice nursing in Japan have to
first realize their own bias for them to practice culturally competent care for patients with
various cultural backgrounds (Piven, 2002). Judaism and genocide: Psychological
undercurrents of history.Jewish tradition educates that human life is the most valuable
thing, and taking care of life surpasses all other considerations. Jews believe that God
created Human beings with the knowledge and ability to partner with him in making the
world a better place. All self-governing communities of the Jews have always set up systems
that ensure that every member of the community has access to health care. In the past,
doctors were required to reduce the medical fees for indigent patients, and if this was not
enough, communal subsidies were given to the poor. American Reform Jews, who are a
community of faith, have at all times ed the coverage of universal health care. One of their
text mentions that if a physician holds back his services, it is considered bloodshed. Their
traditions obligate that all citizens should receive health care services (Shillony,
2012).ReferencesMunro,P.K. (2016).Coming of age in Jewish America: Bar and bat mitzvah
