Anyway I just think that if the Nords want the freedom to worship Talos, then they should be alright with the freedom of ALL religions in the elder scrolls franchise.
No more Vigilants of Stendarr, as many races worship the Daedra- Orcs and Dunmer being some who immediately come to mind. To deny Daedra worship is to deny the Orsimer and Dunmer of their cultural practices.
Speaking of the Dunmer- the Tribunal would have to be formally recognized as gods too, as even in life they were referred to as the 'living gods'.
Likewise one could make an argument that the Dwemer as a whole could have achieved godhood when they disappeared, and so that would have to be accepted if enough people chose to worship them.
And Mannimarco, King of worms- a Lich who ascended to godhood after an attempt to trick Molag Bal himself.
Ysgramor, who made modern Skyrim into what it is today by killing/driving out the elves in an epic battle as revenge for their attack on Sarthal.
Pelinal Whitestrake, who aided the Slave Queen Alessia in overthrowing their elven slavers and freeing an entire race of men.
I could very much continue.
In short, the Nords would have to accept all of these as potential gods that people can worship without persecution. Because freedom of religion is freedom of ALL religion, even those you don't agree with.
