:There are millions of asian in USA and 6%-7% of total population are asian.But why the authors are putting the number of american Buddhists only 1 percentage,this is greatly bias or underestimation of american Buddhist population by the Wikimedia authors. Besides,one third asian americans which means 2 percent of USA population feel close or connected to Buddhism and there are white-european american Buddhist converts too.American Buddhist population must be nearly 10 million and this would be accurate figure of Buddhist population in USA.Buddhism is the second largest religion in America and total Buddhist population in America is bigger than Jews and Muslims because there are millions of East-asian american in USA. 103.137.161.69 (talk) 17:24, 26 May 2025 (UTC) 103.137.161.69 (talk) 17:49, 26 May 2025 (UTC)

Buddhism is the third largest religion, not fourth largest.

In Europe many people are irreligious but the pew researchers are counting them as christains,on the other hand in East Asia many people are irreligious but the pew researchers are not counting them as buddhists. This is greatly bias on the number of Buddhists by Christain researchers. For example,In Russia they estimates Christians 58 million but pew researchers counting the number 110 million.On the other hand In Japan pew researchers estimates 71 million buddhists but counting them buddhists as 46 million.Not only in Russia but there is also wildly exagrated figure for christains in France,Germany,Sweden, uk,Spain etc. 103.109.59.32 (talk) 14:15, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

::::If you don’t believe than see this article:Buddhism in Japan Buddhism in Japan.In that article the author said that there are 71 million Buddhists in Japan which is 67 percent of total population of Japan. On the other hand,another article:Buddhism by country Buddhism by countrythe author estimated and counting that there only 46 million Buddhists in Japan.This is a mistake.Would you please update and fix that problem??Then i will stop editing. 103.137.161.69 (talk) 18:23, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
