    Well, they don't kill people ANYMORE. They used to, though. Warrior monks and all that.

    Some sects practice strict non-violence as I understand it, but at least as far as mainstream Japanese Buddhism goes "not killing anything" is fairly metaphorical. Meaning, "Grill me up some more of that Kobe beef, Toshi, and pop the head off that shrimp so I can eat it while it's still twitching!"
