China has the most Buddhists. 1,349,585,838
India has the second most. 1,220,800,359

Disapproval of homosexuals in both societies is very high. This is likely more cultural than religious though. Thailand is somewhat of a special case since it is essentially a prostitution hub, the Netherlands of the Far East.

Man, you are so totally off on your numbers.

From the India census 2011 site:

Total number of religious adherents = 1,028,610,328
100.0 %

Hindu. 827,578,868. 80.5%

Muslims 138,188,240. 13.4%

Christian 24,080,016. 2.3%

Sikh 19,215,730. 1.9%

Buddhist 7,955,207

Won’t even bother looking up China numbers

I guess the Muslim countries are the most disapproving of homosexual behavior. I think it is not tolerated in any of them.
