pondering paper topics

[sigerson]

Do any of y'all know of speculative fiction/scifi/fantasy novels that involve multiple faiths? I seem to be able to name ones that have One Big Church but an imagined world with multiple faiths isn't quickly jumping to mind. I must be missing something.

ETA: Wow. I must have had my brain turned off not to remember Small Gods. Thank you guys so much for these! (Now I have new reading material that doesn't involve the word "discourse"!)

As far as multiple (created by author) faiths, there's also the Chanur series of C.J. Cherryh. But that doesn't really involve conflict or confrontation--people just take it for granted that different species will have different faiths.
If we plunge into the realm of Very Old stuff, there's also Charles Williams's /Many Dimensions/, which I just read. Though that may not be quite what you're thinking of either.
I feel like there's more... (aside from Mists of Avalon)

Oh, and of course Geraldine Harris's Seven Citadels series, though that's a bit obscure. (But very good, and a much better example than the others.)
