[Discussion] Pew Research, 2017. State religion favorability. Tbh I'm surprised.
Just found this article online.
Leaving other countries aside, when I saw Vietnam being judged as "hostile to religious institutions" I couldn't hold back "wtf". Like... it's so wrong from my own experience there, and I have no idea based on what they could give such judgement.
As a solid counterproof, a big festival on the Huong Pagoda, happening around the 3rd month of Lunar Calendar, had concluded with nearly 800k visits. 800k. I don't think that's "hostile" in any way.
What do you all think?
