Well, in France there are about 2 million people who consider themselves as "close to Buddhism". Some Nationalist leaders think it is even more dangerous than Islam, since Islam is mostly a religion of non-Europeans (only 50,000 ethnic French are Muslims) while Buddhism in Europe is mostly a religion of Europeans. European cultural and spiritual alienation and Buddhist progression (a totally non-European religion) are linked; Buddhism is a weak religion, it works more or less against European resistance. I can't actually imagine a Buddhist fighting for his Nation (in Europe).
No, really, Buddhism would have no place in my ideal Nation.
