Can I get some cheese with that...

If you won't put the effort into answering my questions there is no reason for me to answer yours. It's common courtesy and the burden of proof is yours. If you want to admit that you in no way can prove that Castling is more economical/strategically feasible than a # of other strategies using the same resources and that Castling is not overpowered you just want to change it because it's no fun to have to storm 800 castles in order to beat certain unnamed people. I will answer your question.

And what about the idea (I am not the author of it btw) about burnable temples?

This is a bad change in my mind. Thematically it doesn't fit in my mind. If you find a temple of the heathen god who claims to be the one True God and I was vying for his place, I would burn anything created for him to the ground, then dance around on the ashes then feed the ashes to a blood slave and sacrifice her for no reason other than to kill it again.

Balance wise, it will too suddenly switch the effect of Dominion and Dominion would be more mutable than I feel should. Dominion is represented in my mind by devotion to a god, this takes time and effort. Even though a good % of the popluation is very fickle in their beliefs, healthy % is not so fickle. Also I don't particularly want to devalue Temples importance.
