I agree with Cherry. Morale is arguably the most important factor in combat and with Fanaticism your morale problems are gone...95% of the time, anyway.
If my nation has level 3 priests I always make one my prophet.

Well, according to the Devs, the priests are smart enough not to cast fanaticism when it won't make any difference, which is before a unit has failed a morale check.
I just discovered something cool. If you are playing C'tis and make a Lizard King your prophet. You get a new unit! The special Dragon's Lair Lizard King with mace!
