People assume you are part of the predominant religion, all else being equal. If you're not, you're an outlier and should be worried that a pogrom is coming for you some day.

The Kaiju Preservation Society would look after them. After all, they're in a strange, and very dangerous place. It's lousy with humans, after all.

Re: 2037, a year that will live in history.
It's really crazy to think we are approaching the 100-year anniversary of the start of World War II. I was born in 1968, but somehow World War II doesn't seem that long ago.
