The churches are jealous of their prerogatives and powers, and they
have many differences. Each attempts to enforce their way as the "One
True Way," with varying degress of intensity and success.
Varius scriptures, grimoires and saints are allowed her, but not
there. Various spells are allowed from the grimoires and ascriptures.
As well as local customs, etc.
