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"!)

Jo Walton's The King's Peace/The King's Name duology is an alternate-universe Arthurian with multiple-religious conflicts (including a Christian-analogue king ruling a mostly-pagan region).

I believe the Kushiel series has several religions, agan real-world analogues, but this is scraped together from my hazy recollections of what people have said rather than reading it myself. (I need to read it; I'm told it has kink and spirituality intertwined in it, which, well, obviously so.)

I'm writing something SFnal in which the narrator is a secular Catholic and the main character is a crazed Sufi offshoot; they're currently on a planet dominated by Caribbean Catholicism, but that does you no good as it's not even written, let alone published.

Um. That's what I got off top of head. Some other stuff mentions, y'know, things like 'these nonhuman people have this religion' type stuff, but that's not really the same.
