Required Domains

Should any deity have a domain which their clerics are required to take?

I would say yes for lawful powers and possibly for others where one aspect affects all the others, such as the example I did with Falan

No I think with this change the domains reflect the deities so there is no need to refine it any further and from a metagame perspective I don't like being forced to take something in a general class.  I want to ability to craft the character how I see fit within the story line of the world.  Obviously in a prestige class it is ok to restrict because prestige are more narrow.

For certain powers I think there is one aspect that is at the core or their being and should be reflected in a domain requirement. For lawful powers it just makes sense that they have requirements of their clerics.

There is the anti feat that restricts a cleric to one domain.  A discussion of what effect that anti feat has and what should be allowed should be included in this discussion.
