Default Conversion Rates ?!?!?!??

Clicking on one of my Temple Buttons I find the following information:

CONVERSION RATES
God: 28
Prophet: 9
Home Province: 9
Temples: 225

I know these numbers have to do with my dominion spread, but am not exactly sure how to translate them into results I see on the map. Do they represent % chances for dominion spread? If so, what good is 225% -- does that mean I have built too many Temples (I have 25 so far).

Judging from rsolow's posts, his full version Dominions3 shipped without a manual. And he can't be bothered to use 'newbie questions' type threads.

Having read the maual cover to cover and re-read the section on pages 43, I still do not understand the significance of "Temples 225"

To paraphrase that section that reads, "This gives a quanitifiable idea of how fast you are spreading your dominion", it simply means that the "225" shows that your temples are spreading your dominion about ... 23 times as effectively as your Prophet or Home Province, doing 9.7 times as much to increase your dominion as your pretender.

If you were fond of punctuation, you wouldn't have abused it so.
