Turkey:Popular iman states that playing Chess is worse than gambling and eating pork

(Ankara) Ahmet Mahmut Unlu, a popular Islamic televangelist inside Turkey, has hit the headlines by stating that playing chess is more sinful than gambling and that it is worse than eating pork. (Funny enough he is on recordof defending Oral sex)

“Playing chess is worse than gambling and eating pork ... People who play chess are more prone to lying than others. People who play chess may not say the shahada [declaration of Islamic belief] while they are dying,”
Is there anything that isn’t banned under Islam?
