Talk:Major religious groups/Comments

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page quotes the number of Buddhists as 324,000,000, while the page Religion in China [1] quotes 1 billion (80%), apparently arbitrarily picking this figure from the "Surveys" that "have found that about 30% to 91% identify with Buddhism as one of their religions." [2] Which puts the number between 1.1 and 1.7 billion, it would seem from what I have read that 324 million is too low and 1 billion is too large, while I don't recommend a figure between these is simply guessed, it would be useful to have the two figures the same. I only mention this because I quoted both figures in the same document, very nearly causing embarrassment. Not quite sure how this Talk section works so apologies if this ends up in the wrong place.
