The “do not question or criticize Taoism” is a bit of an oof of a precept, but honestly it doesn’t seem that bad to me.
My understanding is practitioners were pretty given to both alchemy and astrology and those can both lead to actual scientific advancement… Unless your religion forbids questioning established practices.
It has been a while since I played Civ, need a key for most of these symbols.
Left to right, top to bottom.
Bad: Shinto, Taoism
Worst: Sikhism, Buddhism, Jainism
Extremely Worst: Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam
Personally, I think whoever made this image has gives too much credit to Shinto and Taoism.
