Elimination of fringe content

The mainstream historians have always emphasized Emperor Taizong's support for various religions, such as Confucianism, Buddhism, Daoism etc, besides Taizong's pragmatic approach to using them as a tool for imperial political stability.^[1]^[2]

The vast majority of sources verify that Taizong never declared Buddhism or any other religion superior to Chinese religion, so Emy Chua's claims that Taizong's declaration of Buddhism is superior to Chinese religion are fringe. As Amy Chua's claims can be biased and inconsistent with mainstream historical views, her claims will be unreliable as a source to be used.

	The vast majority of sources "verify" that Taizong "never" declared Buddhism or any other religion superior to Chinese religion, so Emy Chua's claims that Taizong's declaration of Buddhism is superior to Chinese religion are fringe. As ~~Emy~~ Chua's claims can be biased and inconsistent with mainstream historical views, her claims will be unreliable as a source to be used.
