In the modern era Shinto-derived religious organizations can be broadly divided into two types, namely "sectarian Shinto" (kyōha Shintō) and "Shinto-derived new religions" (Shintōkei shinshūkyō). The term "sectarian Shinto" is widely used to indicate the thirteen sects of Shinto of the prewar era.

What are the differences between sectarian and non-sectarian schools?

Sectarian schools are associated with a specific religious denomination and often incorporate religious teachings into their curriculum, while non-sectarian schools do not have a religious affiliation and focus on providing a more secular education. Sectarian schools may prioritize religious values and beliefs in their teaching methods and school culture, while non-sectarian schools tend to be more inclusive of students from diverse backgrounds and beliefs.


What ideas shaped japan's religion and government?

Japan has two main religions, Shinto and Buddhism. During World War II, State Shinto was promoted. It had fascist elements. This was dismantled by the United States. Currently the United States has much influence in Japan--promoting capitalism, for example. The current government is a constitutional monarchy--the Emperor has very little political power--his leadership is mainly cultural and spiritual. Currently, Shinto is a collection of traditions honoring ancient gods. It has no particular dogma or creed. It is an expression of the indigenous culture of Japan. Buddhism is more sectarian and organized. Many Japanese consider themselves both Shinto and Buddhist. Both religions are quite tolerant as they both encompass a wide variety of beliefs.
