Which faith embraces modern medicine and vaccines and follows a health code restricting alcohol, tobacco, coffee, tea, and illegal drugs?

• A. Seventh-day Adventists
• B. Hinduism/Hindus
• C. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints/Mormons
• D. Buddhists

Answer: (C)

The idea being tested is how a faith’s health guidelines guide daily choices and medical care. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints follows a health code known as the Word of Wisdom. It prohibits alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs, and it commonly includes avoiding coffee and tea. It also supports using modern medical care and vaccines to protect health. This combination—explicit restrictions on certain substances plus an embrace of medical science and vaccination—fits the description in the question.

Other faiths promote healthy living and abstaining from some substances, but they don’t have the same universal, explicit ban on coffee and tea paired with a clear stance on using vaccines and modern medicine.
