I never said I'm a fanatic Christian. I reject anything that leads to fanaticism (hence my rejection towards inquisitors). For the same reason maybe I also dislike the pejorative term "pagan". Zamolxis belongs to the religion of my ancestors, and I respect that. I don't consider him as a real god (in which case I wouldn't use it as a user name), but more like a mythic figure.

@Daystar: Thanks for your reply. It's a way more friendlier and open for dialogue one, then what I got on a Heroes forum (some catholic with a "rot in hell you pagans!" attitude, trying to convince me of all the good things inquisition did, or a non-believer who said he would have all religious people like me burned alive). I don't mind the use of the inquisitor per se, but the way it is used, as an upgrade to Priest. For my taste I wouldn't bother if it would be the result of a fanatic priest, possesed by a demon (some kind of cross-creature between alignments), but I see why that might look offensive for some conservative catholics, hence my request to avoid using it at all.

They could have gone for Priest of Light (creature belonging to the Might & Magic universe, unlike Warhammer's inquisitor). Or - if the creature indeed has a lot of powers - Prophet (a more suitable upgrade to a priest, blessed by god with supernatural powers). Both choices would have been unoffensive for any religion, unlike this one, which symbolizes the oppresion of a still pretty powerful church against all others.
