I will quote a passage from the recently written scriptures, describing
the nature of the church. :

Today, the Church is not much changed from the rule of Raphael, over nine
hundred years ago. It is still a force for order but has developed enemies
committed to bringing its influence and power to an end. One important
difference, however, is that the Church began, about five hundred years ago,
to allow non-humans to be members and there is no distinction by race made
within the Church today.

Although the Church is not officially committed to any particular God, as
various Templars and Priests rise to power within it, the amount of attention
it might give to any single God waxes and wanes with the attention the
members Templars and Priests individually give. Naturally there are some Gods
who are utterly opposed to the Church and who direct their mortal forces to
seek its destruction. The Church is a very wealthy organization and has been
accused of corruption by its enemies, though as with everything, the source
of the accusation must be taken into account. Though many dislike the Church,
many others consider it one of the greatest institutions ever formed for the
benefit of mortalkind.



I hope this clarifies the situation for you Servelan.
