       Ah, but the rules specifically allow that; see page 24 of the magic book. Remember, the character is making a sometimes rather healthy sacrifice while requesting this wish from the god.

       Not that anybody has to rigidly follow the rules, of course. Depending on one's asthetic vision I suppose one could limit assistance to others to the requester, to associate cults of the caster's god, to friendly cultists. I do think it should take quite a bit to save followers of a _hostile_ cult, but why would one be adventuring with them?
