As a Christian this argument doesn't make sense to me. "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." It's not super difficult (nor is it a high-information-content claim) to consider an entire nation immoral for a specific thing when you believe that everyone alive today does immoral things in their own ways. And as a student of history, entire nations have certainly been immoral. The Confederate States of America is a good example, and a significant number of northerners were also morally wrong on the subject of slavery—almost all of them, a few generations back. There's also Godwin's favorite example, of course. There are the Carthaginians who sacrificed their children. There were the Indians—probably including some of my own ancestors—who practiced sati. I'm certainly not expressing an opinion about Japan; I don't know enough to have a well-informed one. But I'm not going to ignore one possible conclusion because it would force me to say that the nation is immoral. (You switch from "Japan" to "Japanese people" without support or reasoning; of course, we are talking about an organized nation and the culture and norms in power, not about ethnicity in its own right.)
