[QUOTE="GwydapLlew, post: 3202059, member: 40373"] The clergy of Wee Jas receive their power from Wee Jas. Wee Jas only cares about a few things: Sueloise dead being treated properly, the souls of Oeridian mortals being sent to the appropriate place upon their death, not abusing magic, increasing the effectiveness and 'sexiness' of magic, and vanity. She has a set of rules as to how to do these things. How these rules are applied are up to the individual clergyman - and that is where doctrinal differences occur. A LE cleric will follow those rules, but interpret them so as to grant the cleric the most benefit, and will not generally concern themself with the effect this has on other people. That's what LE is all about. A LN cleric will follow those rules without regard of how it benefits any particular person, because that's what LN is all about. A LG cleric will follow those rules and interpret them in such a way that it will benefit everyone as much as possible, because that's what LG is about. A paladin could easily strive against the LE component of the Jasidan faith, showing how the LG interpretations benefit the faith more than the LE. A paladin could keep his eye open for any wrongdoing, so as to bring the brunt of Jasidan punishment upon the LE cleric. A paladin could request a transfer from a church ruled by a LE priest, thereby no longer associating with said priest. A paladin could be aware that a LE priest is in the church, and sermonize and constantly work to show the priest the 'true' way. A paladin could not kill said cleric merely for being evil - it would be a violation of the laws of his faith. These are all ways, IMO, that a LG outlook could deal with a LE outlook within his own hierarchy. [/QUOTE]
