Is it mandatory to take GotOS if you have 4 pastures at the start?

I was playing Peter and planned on Divine Spark as I was thinking about a culture game. Then I see my capital has 2 cows and 1 horse with 2 sheep 4-5 hexes away that city #2 can snag and another horse 4 hexes on the other side for city #3. I feel I have to take GotOS no matter what now and was kind of sad since I like Divine Spark. My first 2 cities will have 5 pastures making GotOS mandatory. Is my thinking on this wrong? Am I assigning too much value to GotOS?

That's still only 5 culture per turn, and if you are playing a culture game your theater squares will dwarf that output in short order. I would not think God of the Open Sky would be mandatory under those circumstances.
 
I think divine spark is a better idea (almost always)
