    Of course. And even more say we don't need "saving."

    Could you list some? Because I can't think of any.

    Numerically, the number of religions that propose that we don't need saving may be greater, but the number of religious people who believe that we need saving currently seems to be the greatest (since it consists of at least Christians of at least the main denominations, Muslims, many Hindus, Buddhists, Jains).
    Their notions of salvation vary, but on principle, these are all soteriological religions.

    Why did you place Buddhism on this list?

    I would phrase it more like, ----- Typically, people accept the non-sense of their religion _after_ they have already joined (or have been joined).
