Familiar assignment

Next week in my humanities reference class we each have to give a five-minute presentation on a religion that is not our own. Totally up my alley, yet I was stumped in trying to come up with something. Tonight at work I busted out the Encyclopedia of World Religions and eventually settled on Shinto. Other than the fact that it's a Japanese religion I know basically nothing about it, but a coworker of mine was telling me last week that she had a professor in college who was way into it, so we'll see how it goes.
