How many Christians were killed in Nagasaki when the atomic bomb was dropped on the city?
AI Overview -
“When the atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, an estimated 8,000 to 10,000 (primarily Catholics) were killed. This loss wiped out roughly two-thirds of the city’s active Catholic population because the bomb detonated directly over the Urakami district, the historic center of Christianity in the city.
Impact on the Christian Community
• Urakami Cathedral: The hypocenter (ground zero) was near the Urakami Cathedral, the largest Catholic church in East Asia at the time, which was completely destroyed.
• Casualties: Out of roughly 12,000 - 15,000 Catholics living in the immediate Urakami area, about 8,500 to 10,000 perished either instantly or from subsequent injuries.
• Historical Significance: Nagasaki’s Christian community had deep historical roots, having survived centuries of severe religious persecution and underground practice during Japan’s isolation period before worship was legalized in the 19th century.”
