Which religious groups are generally not allowed to drink alcohol?

Catholics and Jews.
Latter Day Saints (Mormons) and Muslims.
Methodists and Buddhists.
Protestants and Catholic priests.

The correct answer is: Latter Day Saints (Mormons) and Muslims.

The choice identifying Latter Day Saints (Mormons) and Muslims as religious groups generally not allowed to drink alcohol is correct. Mormons adhere to a health code known as the Word of Wisdom, which explicitly discourages the consumption of alcohol among other substances. This guideline is a significant aspect of their faith, promoting a lifestyle that avoids alcohol to maintain health and spiritual well-being. Muslims follow Islamic teachings that also prohibit the consumption of alcohol. This prohibition is rooted in various interpretations of the Quran, where intoxication is seen as detrimental to one's spiritual and physical health. The other groups mentioned have different beliefs regarding alcohol. While some denominations of Methodists may advocate for abstinence, it’s not a universal practice among all Methodists. Similarly, while many Buddhists may choose not to consume alcohol, it is not a strict rule across all Buddhist cultures. Furthermore, Catholics and Protestant priests have diverse views on drinking alcohol, with many allowed to consume it in moderation, particularly in the context of rituals such as communion.
