Top Five Misunderstandings About Buddhists

I have been wanting to write this post for a while, just because there is so much misinformation out there, which I also often find very amusing. Okay so here goes- the top five misconceptions about Buddhists that I have heard or seen more than once. 

Buddhists are . . .
all vegetarian.
pacifists.
atheists.
politically liberal. 
Asian.

Bonus . . . All Buddhists (or at least the 'good' ones) shave their heads!

I know there must be more, but for now they escape me (and five-six are good to start with).

What can you think of?
