On the other hand, it could be argued that the player characters are part of that 1 in 7 that worship someone else; most everyone in the clan would worship Orlanth or Ernalda. Player characters are always out on the fringe compared to normal clansmen, anyway. I guess it would depend upon the type of campaign you run.
