In my humble opinion, SA is more successful not because it's a religion, but an "ecclesiastical house" for disputes of egos and power. Basically, politics with some theological terms.
Agreed. The whole was still properly executed to allow it to flourish, had another religion been founded by someone else in Morek, it would not have been guaranteed to end up with the same success.
But it still had an immeasurable advantage over any other religion the game ever saw.
