Islam permits divorce, it is very clear on this, though it is considered a disliked thing to do. Masterbation should be orange. Ask most scholars and they will say it is forbidden. Teen sex should be yellow or green. As long as the teens have both reached puberty and are married its fine.

Also, there are plenty of other sexual practices on which religions ethical decisions would be interesting to see -- even if all the major religions condemned them.

(1) Teen sex, in Islam, I would say the position is unclear/neutral. Once a woman has her menstruation, marriage is allowed, it is not uncommon that a women is married once she reached 15-17 years old. (2) In Islam, divorce is absolutely allowed though disliked. (3) Abortion, in Islam, depends on who you ask, some sekt in Islam would condemn it, some would be neutral. (4) I think Roman Catholics is pretty clear that they condemn homosexualism. (5) You should also add Protestant, and Hindu. :) Anyhow, nice viz, quite interesting to see. Dude,

Like so many people, the creator of this the "Religious Teachings On Sex" chart is ignorantly comparing a denomination (Roman Catholicism) to three religions. This is so ridiculous!! The best way to do this is go to their source documents... holy books and pull out scriptures, verses, or sayings related to sex. Compare them as condemned to accepted... then score the religion. Otherwise totally totally inaccurate and purely a chart of the creator's opinion. The basic error of assuming Catholicism is a relgion leads me to believe that the authors perception of religion is from very limited view. Observation..

I'm not one, but I know many that would consider most forms of Christianity different from Roman Catholic. How come there is no column for Christian?
