Sorry for that. I have changed that by now. <br /><br />The problem seems to be, that I came over a statistic review that states the number of religious/pious Muslims with 400k. Indeed, the over-all estimates are higher with 700k-800k people of Muslim background living in Belgium.<br /><br />Regarding your last sentence, I refer to my last note: the thing with the numbers is a tough one. "Right" numbers hardly exist.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03737901895758947334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6796096700107172158.post-84032069648912083462016-05-30T19:35:24.618+02:002016-05-30T19:35:24.618+02:00There are about 11.25 million people in Belgium, 7...There are about 11.25 million people in Belgium, 7% are Muslims, 400.000 is a gross underestimation, its closer to 781887 Muslims. Belgium then comes up with 585-753 Muslims/1m, considerably less than the numbers you propose. <br /><br />Furthermore the last number is from the first January 2015 and is less representative. <br /><br />I suggest using right numbers when voicing a critic, as it puts the whole scope of calculations you made in question.
