Proposal: Give me that Old Time Religion

Let's face it, we're a superstitious, god-fearing lot. But what gods?

Add a rule called Religion:
The Religion practiced by a Family is tracked in the GNDT.

Currently there are 5 different kinds of worship known. In each a single living Member of the Family must be chosen as Spiritual Leader of that Family and is identified with an asterisk next to their name:

"All-Father" worship. The Spiritual Leader must be Male and is called the Patriarch.

"All-Mother" worship. The Spiritual Leader must be Female and is called the Matriarch.

Ancestor worship. The Spiritual Leader must be the oldest Member (chose one if there is a tie) and is called the Revered Elder.

"Great Spirit" worship. The Spiritual Leader may be any Member and is called the Mystic.

"Nameless Horror" worship. The Spiritual Leader may be any Member and is called the Conduit.

A Family may change its Spiritual Leader no more than once per day. If a Family does not have any suitable candidate for Spiritual Leader then it cannot practice that Religion and the GNDT entry is cleared. A Family without a Religion may choose one at any time.

Cross 3-10. Could not be enacted without change of vote. Failed by Smith, 5th of Dec. -3 to Smith.
