Relaxed Pagans
If a Pagan Religion (with no religious head) would in the vanilla game be able to arrest a character for Adultery, Deviancy, Witchcraft or Homosexuality, in this mod is no longer and arrestable crime and is instead considered shunned.
If it previously was shunned or accepted it was not changed.
Logic behind this mod: How could an unreformed religion with no religious head, that could be practiced many different ways in different regions, have one unified set of laws for all tribes and kingdoms to follow.
(I personally don’t like playing as a Viking who can Raid, Conquer, take Concubines, Force Concubines, have bastards, legitimize bastards and more, get arrested for having a lover.)
Note:Shunned still comes with the usual devotion penalty.

Any mod that would overwrite the exact same files (for example relgion/religions/germanic.txt) would either overwrite this mod or be overwitten depending on load order. However if it only affects other religions not changed by this mod then they would be compatible.
In the future if I learn how to only alter the needed lines and not the whole files that would improve compatiblity.
Feel free to use this mod in your own works or derive off of it as it is very simple and you don’t need to credit me unless you want to. In fact if you can improve the comapiblity, that would be great.
A note of historical accuracy: I did not research or look up if any of the religions at any point in time or in any areas arrested people for things such as adultery. I only made this mod the way I would like to play pagans. It is not a political statement or a claim on historical accuracy which is why they are left as shunned. Please do not turn the comments into a discussion about politics or history if you feel the mod is wrong feel free to make your own mod that is more accurate than this mod. If a mod already exists that does the same as this mod I have not found it.
