I watched the little featurette on the DVD, and the clerics havinf personality was a concious decision. Kurt Wimmer thought it would be too stale if they had 0 indiviuality. I did think that was cool though, the regular poice really were faceless minions.
I took the "outlawing emotion" as a fantasy element. I immediately thought of Farenheit 451 when they torched the mona lisa at the beginning. I thought it was a great modern dystopia, and they really dont seem to tmake those any more.
