Buddhism more popular than Islam
March 28, 2008
An increasing number of Danes choose other religions than Christianity. No official statistics exist, but Theology Professor Mogens S. Mogensen estimates, based on scientific research, that 4.000-5.000 Danes converted to Buddhism 1970-2005 while Islam got only 2.100-2.800 danish converts. According to Mogensen, Buddhism is seen as more congruent with western life-style and with Christianity.
