@Smoke:
We don't want two holy cities in a production city which it what everyone wants for Pav. The only reason we founded confucianism in Pav was that it was the best choice at the time.
We want our next holy city in our super commerce city that will have all those cottaged flood plains and Market/Grocer/Stock exchange/Wall Street/Spiral Minaret.
Plus I don't think we can get Judaism to found in Pav anyways since its already a holy city. So unless we set it up to found in the commerce city it will end up in Oskemen or Aktau- not desireable.
@Everyone:
1. Can we get consensus on founding Judaism in the commerce city?
2. Has anyone tested my suggestion of switching from a settler to a worker in Pav and then whipping the settler 1 turn after we whip the settler in Aktau? This allows us to found Judaism in our commerce city and gets us the Iron much quicker.
Instead of a settler Haz can build a worker so there is no loss of workers. The only opportunity cost is 2 pop in Pav which regenerates very quickly. This is TOTALLY worth it to get the critical Iron city sooner.
I disagree - if possible a double holy city in Pav would be great. While a holy city in a commerce city is nice, we hope to be running 100% science most of the game. Therefore a commerce city really does no give much contribution to gold. However shrines, merchants, GMs, and corporations always contribute gold and will see a greater benefit from Wall Street. A double holy city will get the greatest benefit.
Granted I don't think we will be able to get a double holy city. But we should try to.
