There have been a lot of posts in this forum concerning people's resentment of the gods. But it's really quite simple to make them your allies rather than your enemies:

Each temple to the patron god covers 375 people.
Each shrine to the patron god covers 187 people.
Each temple to a local god covers 750 people.
Each shrine to a local god covers 375 people.

The rules are:

1. Keep the total coverage for each god equal to or above your current population.

2. Treat the local gods equally. Equal numbers of shrines and temples for each.

3. Treat the patron god preferentially. Have more temples and shrines to this god than any of the local gods.

4. Throw a common festival every six months dedicated to the god that's gone the longest without one. Follow these rules and you'll be continuously showered with divine blessings. It's really not hard to find room for shrines, they aren't overly costly, and they don't require any employees.
