They learn them from their mother, of course... "Pay attention dear, these are things you will need to know when you are a woman!"
BG existed in the Greater Darkness and Voria was (IIRC) born at the Dawning, so she is not teaching her much older sister much of anything. Voria is the child goddess of children. Her (very few) acolytes are virgins who make flowers bloom, and they teach practically nothing.

In a rewritten game, it might be much easier to change cults, but simultaneous membership is not (IMO) likely to be the solution.

Only in your game. The Maran Gor writeup gives specific details on what they do to the children they occasionally have, and while the most violent Gor cults mistreat men or forbid marriage, BGor does not say any of this. I admit that having a child will put a crimp into your slaying, at least until you can give the little rugrat to a wetnurse, but they can still do it. Bob Stancliff
