Been a student of the nyingma lineage of Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism for about 5 years.
"The one thing I wonder about though is if you are a Buddhist, how can you live in the western world? I mean, if you can't kill even a single insect then driving a car would be out of the question."
It has to do with intent and karma. Of course it would be impossible to live in the West...or the East for that matter, if you couldn't kill an insect. The thing is, I don't get into my car with the express intent to go kill insects.
