This is going to sound lame to some I know, but "Shaman's of Jehovah" in our
games get no bonuses of any kind, nor do they get any major negatives. They
are treated as "Coyote" sort of, except for their beliefs structure, which is
different. This way we didn't offend anyone if they were encountered.
That and the "Church" in it's various forms is an active force in our games
(we -do- have the Ark of the Covenant after all....)
