I'll take the lack of comments on this chapter to mean that everyone is happy with it?
I do have one comment, one I've raised previously, and that is the section on the Cerilian Calander that seems really out of place in the chapter on religion IMO. Of course, there is no really good place to fit it into the BRCS, which is why it ended up in the god's chapter.Let me claim your Birthright!!

Hmmm, I think the Clerical domains need a once-over (old nagging feeling that I can't place atm), I'm just focused on Chapter 5 right now...
But yeah, for the most part Ch 5 is fine since most of it, being the Deities' descriptions are pretty direct translations from 2e.

I think that nagging maybe from those others posting about adding some domains to the dwarven god.

...which I retract in the light of peoples' comments and some 'deep' thinking on the subject...
Seriously, the only change I can thing of is deleting the info on teh OIT, IHH and HA. Since those organizations are going to be detailled in the Atlas, do we need to cover them here in the BRCS?"It may be better to be a live jackal than a dead lion, but it is better still to be a live lion -- and usually easier."

The Calendar fits perfectly into religion. Not only because a pope
worked on our own calendar, but because an important part of the life in
old times would be the church celebrations and holy days. Days of
fasting or whatever rites are required.

If it is going to stay then it should be moved towards the end of the chapter (perhaps just before the cosmology section.) It does not fit where it currently is, it looks really out of place to me, as you go from a talking about patron deities etc into the calander, and then back onto deities again.

Hmmm...
If it was up to me I'd rip this entire chapter out of the BRCS and transplant it into the Atlas of Cerilia, and then move the Prestige Classes from the Atlas into the Rulebook, making them chapter 3, and make the chapter on magic, chapter 4. It would work better that way around, keeping all the rules-specific material in the Rulebook and all the setting-specific in the Atlas.Let me claim your Birthright!!

That is logical.
