Going just on these issues, could one’s beliefs align more strongly with a religion other than their own? Does your self-described religion share your beliefs on these issues? Are there more important issues to you?

1. Why is Christianity separated into sects (but lacking information on anyone but Roman Catholics) and the rest of the religions are not?

Although I like the conciseness of the chart, I think they could give a little more information.
